Malini Sur @malinisur.bsky.social · 11/06/2025Has anyone recovered from T & F swallowing Amsterdam University Press? So much for the generous labour of editors, peer reviewers, & scholars who believed in O/A. You probably know where to find Transnational Flows —a volume I co-edited with Barak Kalir during my PhD. 100

Reposted by Malini SurWarwick Anderson @wombatscholar.bsky.social · 21/05/2024It seems Spectacles of Waste as a book is available in the US and UK (but Australia not yet). The electronic version available everywhere. As Anna Tsing kindly says, 'Anderson puts the "anal" back in analysis and the "colon" back in colonialism.' That's good, isn't it? #STS #anthro #histSTM #histsci 3153
