One of the important activist works Emi did was the movement to seek justice for former "comfort women." She did tremendous work to fight historical revisionism, wrote multiple articles and book chapters, co-founded FeND, and produced an informative FeND website. fendnow.org

after a long wait, our forum article on the uses and abuses of the anticolonial in global reactionary politics is finally online! academic.oup.com/ips/article/... for the IPS @20 special issue
Abstract
Drawing on a range of regional expertise and perspectives from international relations, political economy, political theory, and sociology, this collective discussion makes the following contributions to research on global reactionary politics and discussions of decolonization. First, we argue that the erosion of the legitimacy of liberal orders renders the anti-colonial language available for authoritarian and conservative projects in both the Global South and North to articulate a selective rejection of universalism. While framing liberal universalism as imperialist, they remain embedded within neoliberal structures and embrace a market universalism in tandem with claims of cultural particularity. Secondly, the contributions explore a series of ironies, reversals, and convergences not only across regional divides, but also across conventional ideological boundaries. This includes conceptual affinities between the radical right’s emphasis on ontological difference and the nativist temptation within the history of anti-colonial nationalism, as well as the confluence between the radical conservatives, the postcolonial authoritarians, and a certain strand of decolonial discourse in their envisioning of a multipolar civilizational order. Finally, we suggest that for international political sociology, this urges us to deepen engagement with anti-colonial traditions that are radically incompatible with the far right and to center forms of vernacular anti-colonial theorizing from marginalized places.

As a racialised ECR on a fixed-term contract, I found this research process often saddening & infuriating, but ultimately affirming of my belief in practising care & community-building. Massive thanks to my RA, Kris! If anyone would like to discuss this project, please get in touch 📩

Lastly: fixed-term “career development” posts in UKHE need clarification around what exactly CD activities look like in practice. Too often we’re too overwhelmed with teaching to do research, which is needed to land ever-elusive permanent post…

There is also a systematic lack of support for disabled ECRs (esp those w/ chronic illness) and those with caring responsibilities. Implicitly, institutions communicate what kind of scholars they want: unattached, always “well” to do the job as told. The ideal scholar is devoid of body & community.

Dr Moé Suzuki @moesz.bsky.social · 01/09/2025
I was also struck by a participant who said those who work within the ‘Western canon’ tend to do better re: promotions & retention. Those who don’t are silently pushed out of the institution. So, if you engage in such scholarship, even if you have a permanent contract, you still feel precarious.

Dr Moé Suzuki @moesz.bsky.social · 01/09/2025
I could spend hours discussing the interview data. Lots of overlap with existing research on experience of racialised scholars in HE. One of the most insightful findings for me was the “elite” culture of institutions like LSE - feeling out of place, a sense of “sink or swim”, not being good enough.

Dr Moé Suzuki @moesz.bsky.social · 01/09/2025
🛤️The ‘leaky pipeline’ issue exists at LSE. Racialised scholars (esp Black scholars) are underrepresented at senior academic roles, and overrepresented at junior, precarious roles with fixed-term contracts. What this data shows for me is that precarity is a racial justice issue.
5 line graphs, each showing the relationship between academic role (Professor, Associate professor, Assistant professor, LSE fellow, and Researcher) and race (‘Asian’, ‘Black’, ‘Mixed’, ‘Other’, ‘White’, ‘Unknown’).
