On First View, Hanna Eklund engages critically with Kundnani's Eurowhiteness. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Really brilliant piece by Tara Zahra, ending with the need for redistribution to respond to economic inequality, which is not where these analyses of how now is like the early 20th century always end. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/05/o...

Great article, really important proposals in advance of the upcoming first #BBNJ prepcomm: www.frontiersin.org/journals/oce...

Wild. And at the same time entirely historically consistent with US practice on this.

I'm not an objective audience... but such a great lecture @acelg-uva.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IyP...

I'll be in New Haven tomorrow to talk about my book! law.yale.edu/yls-today/ya...

Shoutout to Nehal Bhuta who since 2020 is curating these online gatherings for former and current PhD supervisees. We met weekly during lockdown and monthly since to discuss draft papers, PhD chapters, book proposals, conference presentations, perform mock job talks and read books together...

Two pieces I wrote on the IPOS initiative (ipos.earth) came out over the holidays. First, on @ejiltalk.bsky.social I focus on two possible problems-the ambition to depoliticise the advice it would give to states, and its ambiguous relationship with 'capacity-building': ejiltalk.org/reforming-oc...

The #1 thing I want to do on my sabbitcal is read, whole books, as many as I can. I started here, and offer a brief summary/review [1/7]

Out, open access, in January 2025! global.oup.com/academic/pro...

Counsel for Antigua and Barbuda now arguing around treaty law (the Paris Agreement) and relying on customary international law to suggest that a higher-than-Paris standard could apply to states... an (implicit) indictment of the inadequacy of how Paris has been used... webtv.un.org/en/asset/k19...

Really worth watching...
