The recording of last Friday's panel on 'Far-right ecologies', organised by @futureearth.bsky.social is now out (see comment)!

I was happy to share the 'floor' with Viola Baldeschi, Noemi Gonda, Shehnoor Khurram and Bernhard Forchtner.

Not much to be added really ("UPF is with Palestine").

Glory to all the book reviewers out there (especially those who were kind enough to review my book) but this is why I try to stay away from writing them myself.

From the book "Political Hypocrisy" by David Runciman.

A small milestone, but it takes me back to the (encouraging) rejection this piece received from another journal when I was a first-year PhD student. I was gutted then, convinced my academic career was over. 😂
Celebrate small wins, strive for the bigger ones.
