It's finally here! The Oxford Handbook of Norms Research in International Relations. It's a (very useful) beast of a book, with Section 8 (Complexity, Interactions and Dynamics) co-edited by yours truly, including my chapter (49) on 'Norm Interactions, Systemic Change and World Order.'

Now out in The Oxford Handbook of Norms Research in International Relations (ed. @sassangholiagha.bsky.social, @philorchard.bsky.social & @antjewiener.bsky.social):

Chapter by @nicjenne.bsky.social & me on troop contributors' contestation of UN peacekeeping norms

academic.oup.com/edited-volum...
41 Contested Peacekeeping Norms Across the Global South Christoph Harig, Nicole Jenne https://doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780198915874.013.0042 Pages 491–501 Published: 18 December 2025 Annotate icon Annotate Cite Icon Cite Permissions Icon Permissions Share Icon Share Abstract The contestation of norms about the use of force in peace operations reflects deeper contestations of the international order. In an apparent division of labour, the permanent members of the UN Security Council define norms and mandates for missions to which countries from the Global South provide the bulk of troops. While this would imply a clear hierarchical relationship, we show that troop-contributing countries have significant access to contestation. This chapter offers a comprehensive overview of how and to what extent the peacekeeping norm on the protection of civilians (PoC)—which is crucial to ensure mission effectiveness—has been contested by African, Asian, and Latin American troop contributors. The chapter also shows that the practices of the three regions influenced how PoC mandates were implemented, and debates the limits of these regions’ agency in contesting peacekeeping norms.

Wer konstant und kritisch über den Nahostkonflikt berichtet und NICHT irgendwann auf die Ablehnung von IDF-Vertretern und -Fans trifft, macht etwas falsch. Sophie von der Tann macht sehr viel richtig.

What happens at #COP30 in #Belém?
So far, #COP30 has been far more interesting than many expected (including myself) — and also more encouraging, given the otherwise very bleak global outlook on climate and almost everything else.

Here are my takeaways from the first week:
