@matteopascoletti.bsky.social complimenti per l'ottimo articolo. Uno dei migliori in italiano che abbia letto sulla situazione da mesi.

This may sound like an overstatement, yet I believe it is not. If you are an academic and you do not fear the possibility of imprisonment, or worse, within the next decade—unless you significantly restrict your intellectual freedom—then you are not sufficiently concerned.

At least someone in liberal circles is starting to understand that we have to overcome Kindlerberger. In some conferences that I saw or attended recently people were still crying because there is no more stabilizer🙄🙄🙄
By moi: Multiple liberal-democratic powers, each championing their own sphere, would arguably create a race to the top for defending liberal institutions and values—not a race to the bottom as happened in the bipolar Cold War world at @theunpopulist.net
Never Again Should a Sole Superpower Anchor the Liberal International Order
We need a confederation of liberal democracies across continents to uphold a multilateral, rights-based global system

The USA voted against because of the preambular reference to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. For the US delegate the Agenda “impinges upon State sovereignty as a soft form of global governance".

I wish...

Instead is just skizoposturing

Are you ready to get the debate on this reopened?
In today's FT I that common bond issuance in Europe makes economic sense, including for the frugal countries.

Now is the time to reopen the Eurozone bond debate
The EU now has a unique chance to capitalise on investor doubts about the US and promote the euro as a reserve currency

🧵 Why are young voters in Europe shifting to the populist right? Is TikTok playing a role?

A new study investigates Finnish voters and reveals an interesting paradox:

Young people have broadly liberal policy preferences—
Yet they are much more likely to vote for the populist right.

The vote at the European Parliament on ReArm Europe is the final proof of the Italian partitic parochialism and that the public debate in Italy is totally out of touch.

Il voto dei partiti italiani al PE su #ReArm Europe è la prova finale del provincialismo partitico italiano e che il dibattito pubblico in Italia è totalmente fuori dal mondo.

I mean, on the positive side, Trump is giving so many possible ideas and data for papers to scholars interested in trade.
I believe this is a world first: An intra-day tariff chart.

New paper published @ajpseditor.bsky.social

Showing that reduced access to public services fuelled far right support in 🇮🇹

Existing work on far right highlights globalization & migration grievances, what about people’s experiences with the state?

We use 🇮🇹 reform to find out
