New article in @politicalquarterly.bsky.social w/ @michaellister.bsky.social & @apowelllaw.bsky.social on the naming of laws after exemplary victims of injustice. While opening space for addressing harm, such laws also, we argue, pose political & legal risks: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

The PhD project: This PhD project explores the international politics of exclusion and investigates the mechanisms by which authoritarian regimes pursue and persecute citizens they have blacklisted for their political beliefs.

Eligibility: Eligible applicants must have completed a Bachelor’s degree in Politics, Sociology, International Relations or a related social sciences discipline.

Delighted to see this now out & open access in EJIS. The article explores what happens when seemingly critical ideas around counterterrorism achieve wider currency. Coauthored with @michaellister.bsky.social, huge thanks to the reviewers & editors. Check it out here: doi.org/10.1017/eis....

The victory march of democracy has ended What can we as researchers do? In the Scandinavian countries, a particular tool is available: Democracy & Power Studies. The Danish government appointed me as director of such a study. We started our work this year. A 🧵 on what we do & how we do it 1/8

Why is there no bookmark feature here? It would be really useful to save insightful posts, for our own learning and to refer to when challenging misleading claims and narratives especially those peddled by the ruling class. It’s an essential tool for accountability.

Flow of the vote, 2019-24, revised using @britishelectionstudy.com data. Only a few minor alterations, but the shifts are still striking - without even getting onto non voters and demographic churn, over 10m voters voted for a different party in 2024 than in 2019.

Not being in any academic starter packs is giving me the same feelings as being picked last at school. It’s fine… I’m niche, I tell myself.

So I asked my 7 year old if she found any subjects at school tough-going. Thinking maybe maths or science. With serious eyes she looks up at me… “Chinese” 😅
