One week left to apply to the Post-Socialist and Comparative Memory Studies Conference (Yerevan, January 2026). Was the previous conference the best one I attended? Yes. Will this be even better? It certainly might! www.posocomesyerevan2026.com

A new paper, co-authored with my fantastic colleagues, explores not what is remembered in politics but how the past and present are connected in narratives. We propose a typology of temporal distances in memory politics. Open Access: doi.org/10.1111/1468...

One unexpected perk of teaching outside my research (human rights/memory) is that course prep can double as family movie night inspiration. While preparing for a class on posthumanism & care, I stumbled on The Biggest Little Farm—my kids loved it!
