It’s been wonderful being in Sendai for a workshop honouring judge Shigeru Oda. Thanks to Prof Kentaro Nishimoto and Tohoku University for their kind hospitality.

You’re never too old to get star-struck. Jane Fonda just gave a stirring speech to the BBNJ PrepCom urging states to keep up the momentum toward 60 ratifications.

I’m so sad about the news that #Marsden grants will not be funded for Soc Sci and humanities (incl law) in NZ. I’m even sadder by the people crowing about it on social media. SS/H is needed to understand our world and make it better and there are many grants focusing on economic/tech issues.
