Molt encertat això de @jordimunoz.bsky.social: "Centrar el debat en això permet que, en el moment que Mazón ja no estiga en escena, el seu partit i govern facen com si allò no anara amb ells." naciodigital.cat/opinio/el-ve...

«Si es volen combatre les condicions polítiques que van fer possible la tragèdia, no n'hi ha prou amb la dimissió de Mazón. Cal confrontar la ideologia negacionista de la dreta valenciana»

Please share this thread. It is important that political scientists, in Europe and across the world, understand why EPSS exists and why we are encouraging people to attend our inaugural conference, in Belfast next June.
EPSA have announced that they will hold a conference in July 2026.

😵‍💫 We understand that there might be some confusion about EPSS and EPSA.

👉🏽 So we thought we would clarify some things.

Israeli political scientist Lihi Ben Shitrit:

"The more I learn about genocide, the more shocked and embarrassed I am by my own ignorance. Once I actively tried to be better informed about genocide, the picture in Gaza became terrifyingly clear."

As an Israeli political scientist, I resisted thinking this war was a genocide. Here's what changed my mind
The incitement for genocide in the Israeli public sphere is undeniable. So why are so many of us liberal Jews so reluctant?
