À chaque COP, les peuples autochtones sont invités à “être visibles”, rarement à être entendus.
J’explore cette tension dans mon dernier article pour The Conversation.

COP après COP, les peuples autochtones sont de plus en plus visibles mais toujours inaudibles
Ils occupent 20 % des territoires terrestres, mais leur voix demeurent souvent inaudibles lorsque les décideurs du monde entier se réunissent.

I wrote for @allegralab.bsky.social on @yaelberda.bsky.social’s Colonial Bureaucracy and Contemporary Citizenship. A brilliant book on how paperwork (censuses, permits, blacklists) became tools of colonial control and still shape mobility & exclusion today.

In this succinct and timely review, @marinegauthier.bsky.social's engages with Yael Berda's new book at the intersection of empire, borders, and colonial administration to show that "citizenship in postcolonial states functions as a mobility regime"—a sobering reality that stands the test of time.

Why do many IOs struggle to learn despite a plethora of formal learning processes and tools?
In my new ISQ article, I argue that the criticism culture—the way IOs deal with criticism from their employees—is an overlooked but crucial variable to explain (the lack of) learning in IOs. 🧵
