Just another Danish Marxist 🙋‍♀️

I like reading and writing and talking about international law and political economy, legal theory, world order, and everything that’s wrong with contemporary digital technology. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

Rereading my PhD thesis and just found this golden typo. I’m somewhat happy I didn’t correct it before submission - it’s more accurate this way tbh

An astonishing statistic. And the fact that we created a world where that is virtually logistically impossible is a real detriment and very sad.

The most peculiar aspect of writing might be the seamless coexistence of the two concerns, “if I don’t get shit done soon someone else might run with my idea” and “my idea absolutely sucks”

Just received this new volume, which makes a much-needed intervention into the mainstream legal literature on international organizations. I’ll be discussing it next week at CBS with editors Negar Mansouri and @drqv.bsky.social - come by if you’re in Copenhagen, or join us virtually! 🔥
