Female graduates in the UK fall behind men from the very start of their careers, even when they have taken the same courses, and are out-earned after studying more than four-fifths of university subjects (1/3) www.ft.com/content/cb0e...

I’m excited to share that my first book came out this summer! The book looks at how EU state aid cases become politicised (and de-politicised) and what this means for the EU’s legitimacy. At its core, the book shows how competition policy is never just technical, but also deeply political.

"Regulation by deal, precisely because it bypasses general lawmaking procedures, leaves open the possibility that any deal can be supplemented with even more demands in the future. It can provide no legal guarantees of security." ALWAYS read @kimlanelaw.bsky.social 👈

Great piece especially in showing how the Trump administration is able to weaponize the budget against universities. One should ask if similar methods could be used in one's own jurisdiction. Spoiler for the Germans: probably yes.

Le compte officiel de l'ambassade des Etats-Unis en France en vient désormais à nier l'importance des *faits* dans une démocratie. Et emprunte le phrasé habituel (« élites mondiales ») des complotistes de tous poils. Quelle incroyable déchéance sans fin pour un tel pays.

Here’s hoping university administrators are as clear eyed about protecting academic freedom and faculty governance as the signatories of this excellent letter.

The Brazilian Supreme Court is fearless in the face of sanctions -and will ensure that the trial of Bolsonaro stays on track. Trump is once again attempting to obstruct justice when it comes to holding former presidents accountable. www.reuters.com/world/americ...

Norway is facing a similar challenge to its long-term policy of remaining outside the EU as Finland and Sweden did with their stance on NATO, writes @alanderminna.bsky.social.

🇪🇺⚖️🇵🇱 Unlike with the previous AG Spielmann opinion on PL Constitutional Tribunal, here I'll wait for the full text before commenting, as AG might be suggesting a significant change of the established CJEU approach to "neo-judges" and their judgments.

Great & very important @verfassungsblog.de about academic freedom by my colleague Prof Jan Komarek We may disagree about some other things - like “scholactivism” - but I agree with him 💯 here. We as scholars need to protect our space. Make this your w/e read! verfassungsblog.de/resisting-su...

Good article but calling it “Trump’s fight against antisemitism” is to agree that this is what he is actually doing, when he insults Jews with whom he disagrees, surrounds himself with people who do Nazi salutes, echo the Great Replacement theory, demonize Soros, etc. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/02/u...

“From universities to cities, regions, countries and now the European Commission, the message is loud and clear — Europe welcomes U.S.-based talent and is pulling out all the stops to attract America's best and brightest.”

"Authoritarian governments around the world know that universities are spaces of independent thought and thus potential threats. From Hungary to Turkey to Russia, breaking their independence is an early step in the consolidation of control."

Here's a story from South Korea that can inspire the "Hands Off!" events taking place in the United States: how a mix of street protests and responsive democratic institutions prevailed in a political crisis.

4 books-1 week 😅Many friends 😍 Many ideas 😀The feeling that we should do something more than discussing between us...but WHAT???? 😅 @iureamicorum.bsky.social @silviasteininger.bsky.social

everyone is always like "ohhh you do comparative regional human rights law, ohhh the IACtHR, fascinating" - but nobody talks about the days when you have to read the most horrible case files on the El Salvadoran abortion ban and amicus curiae submissions by Catholic and Evangelical lobby groups...

Pleased to meet Nobel Peace Prize laureate Denis Mukwege. His work at Panzi Hospital in the Democratic Republic of Congo has given hope to countless survivors of sexual violence in conflict. We discussed the need to defend a world that puts human dignity first.

Wow, at last: « According to the survey, 90% of respondents believe EU member states should demonstrate greater unity when addressing global challenges » And yet each politician talking to its electorate…. www.euronews.com/my-europe/20...
