I wrote about why it is so tempting to give in to doom thinking, and why we shouldn't I drew inspiration from Björk and Blaise Pascal www.theneweuropean.co.uk/emily-herrin...

Björk, Pascal and the end of the world

Whatever you do, don’t give in to the idea that we are all doomed. It only makes it all much worse

Drain the feeling out of politics? Not according to Hélène Landemore and @antolw.bsky.social, who led a conference exploring how love, empathy, and hope can play crucial roles in fostering engagement and deliberation. bit.ly/4hH727A

Seems lots of new people joined Bluesky over the weekend, so I'm re-upping this starter pack I created of people working on democratic innovations for a more participatory and deliberative politics. Still room for others to be added, so give me a shout if I missed you. go.bsky.app/LX11yEA #polisky

UBC is offering two fully funded PhD positions in political theory! Please share widely (and feel free to share on Twitter! I never joined it and this would be a really questionable time to join) politics.ubc.ca/news/apply-n...

politics.ubc.ca

Apply now for a fully funded PhD position in Political Theory at UBC Political Science - Department of Political Science

These positions are ideal for those interested in foundational problems in political theory and cutting-edge questions in emerging areasof the discipline.
