Delighted to review Hannah Arendt's collected poems (bilingual version, trans.& eds. by @samantharhill.bsky.social and @genesegrill.bsky.social ) for Contemporary Political Theory! Is it possible to find home in a language when one's homeland has been laid to ruins? Arendt responds: rdcu.be/etFcC

This piece by @shoufuyin.bsky.social is the most revolutionizing article in intellectual history I’ve read in years. It seriously changes how one thinks about liberty and the dissemination of political ideas. Finally out at APSR!

1/3 Someone's complaints about Intro to PoliSci being taught in a hard "scientific" way reminded me of my Intro in grad school, which is still among the best courses I've ever taken. It was taught by Bill Scheuerman and, notably, involved a section of disciplinary history.
