Congratulations to @oskarnarcho.bsky.social who successfully defended his PhD today at the Otto Von Guericke University, Magdeburg. Delighted to have co-supervised this thesis by publication on anarchist peace facilitation.

Last Wednesday I defended my PhD - seen here with my pulse still through the roof. A huge thank you to everyone who supported me throughout this journey. A special shoutout goes to my supervisors Prof. Alexander Spencer and @profalexp.bsky.social who made all this possible.

My article in @jisb.bsky.social has found a home in Volume 19, Issue 5. With real page numbers! Scientific publishing feels still surreal. Thank you to the colleagues, friends and my two mentors Alexander Spencer and @profalexp.bsky.social who supported me along this journey.

I am really excited to share my new article at @jisb.bsky.social "Breaking the Mould: Economic Utopias as Pathway to Peace" I argue that economic policy for peacebuilding needs to escape the ever same prescriptions and instead become an inventory of emancipatory possibilities.
