🚨New #OnlineFirst article out with Global Society!🚨 "Ordering Epistemic Diversity in Global Governance: The Case of Climate Change" is by @andreslr.bsky.social It's #OpenAccess, so do click on the link below and give it a read!👇

The knowledge politics of global governance have become increasingly diverse in recent decades through the recognition of culturally specific ways of knowing, often labelled “local”, “traditional”, or “Indigenous” knowledges. Although epistemic authority has become an established concept in International Relations and the sociology of expertise, the question of epistemic diversity remains undertheorised. Prevailing approaches continue to rely on science–policy models that inadequately capture the politics of epistemic diversity. This paper addresses this gap by developing a framework that conceptualises the ordering of knowledge as a process through which authority and diversity are co-constituted. A focus on ordering reorients inquiry towards the production of authorised forms of epistemic difference and its consequences. The argument is developed through an analysis of global climate governance, examining the politics of epistemic diversity within UN governance and transnational Indigenous mobilisation around forest-based policies in Amazonia.

Happy to finally share my new paper, “Ordering Epistemic Diversity in Global Governance: The Case of Climate Change,” published in @globalsociety.bsky.social. The paper develops a framework for thinking about the relationship between epistemic authority and diversity in global governance.

Happy and thankful to be part of the 2026 essay collection of the Academy of Sciences in Hamburg: “Vielfalt. Die Kraft der Kontraste” (“Diversity. The Power of Contrasts”). My essay explores the recognition of epistemic #diversity, especially Indigenous knowledges, in global #climate governance.

German academia: great place to work? You should think twice before giving it a try: Permanent positions are very rare, most scholars have to drop out after some precarious years. @dianakwon.bsky.social has written a great piece about this for @nature.com and also talked to yours truly. #IchBinHanna

Germany is one of the most popular destinations for students and scholars worldwide, but those pursuing academic careers face significant hurdles to success.
