I have a new piece out Reflecting on 20 years of struggles, it goes into what abolish ICE does - and doesn't - mean; merging of immigration enforcement with policing & military power; how fascism is made through bordering; and what the border even is bostonreview.net/articles/how-n…
@tan12390 And of course, @Econ_Marshall has been yelling into the void about this for as long as I’ve known him. There’s a Boston review article he wrote nearly 10 years ago I come back to because he predicted so much of this: bostonreview.net/articles/marsh…
“In Lebanon, we start our days with a deluge of stories and images: buildings targeted, cars struck on highways, families wiped out.. Israel seems to be following the same logic it deployed in Gaza: emptying out entire areas through what amounts to ethnic cleansing.” bostonreview.net/articles/mille… by Joelle M. Abi-Rached via @BostonReview
Please go and read this essay by Farah Bakaari on what it means for Somaliland to finally be recognised...by a genocidal state. bostonreview.net/articles/sover…
this piece by Farah Bakaari is, by far, the most important essay I’ve read so far on the stakes of Somaliland’s political project and the meanings of de jure recognition in a world of sovereign nation-states bostonreview.net/articles/sover…
A transcript from last week's Boston Review panel, "Artificial Reason" is now online. It was an excellent conversation on AI, rationality, violence, and much more. bostonreview.net/articles/artif…
@TiltingatM3 this was my summary a few years ago (based on Kjell Össtberg's work): social democracy was the outcome of rapid and uneven 'late' Swedish industrialization + formal political exclusion bostonreview.net/articles/can-s…
thought this was a really interesting read! i love good + challenging criticism!
“We are living through an ugly period, not least in the arena of gender. It seems everyone you talk to has an incel acquaintance, a son obsessed with Andrew Tate, or an aunt with an unhealthy fixation on toilets. Misogyny, not new so much as newly shameless, is all the rage.”
A version of the essay came out in the @BostonReview in English: bostonreview.net/articles/the-w…
Israel controls every aspect of people’s lives—what we eat, how much we eat, the quality of the water we drink, and the environmental conditions we live in. It decides who receives medical treatment and who dies from lack of it, who can travel and who is besieged, whose home is a tent and who lives under roof, where people can live and when they must evacuate. My first piece to @BostonReview: bostonreview.net/articles/the-w…
From my post mortem of Biden-era Dem-affiliated economic policy thinking published last year in @BostonReview: bostonreview.net/articles/a-rea…
"In short, we are ruled by a class of people who seem either to believe or presume that war, disease, and apocalyptic destruction are things that will only ever happen to poorer and browner people." bostonreview.net/articles/a-yea…
Recording of the panel I moderated for the Boston Review with four distinguished scholars—Peyman Jafari, Ali Kadivar, Manijeh Moradian, and Naghmeh Sohrabi—to discuss the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran: bostonreview.net/articles/the-w…
