In some excellent company. Here's my piece: www.cambridge.org/core/journal... 1/2

ALERT! Application deadline for the ISA Northeast Pedagogy workshop extended to August 15! The workshop is an excellent way that ISA-NE supports grad students applying for jobs and early career academics at the tenure stage. If that's you, apply!! In any case, please help spread the word!

🧵Excellent preview thread on a forthcoming special issue on heritage politics edited by @elifkalay.bsky.social and @jelenasubotic.bsky.social! More to come ⬇️

So, @jelenasubotic.bsky.social and I are co-editing a special issue on heritage politics for @risjnl.bsky.social, and the contributions are starting to drop on first view! Stay tuned for our co-authored introductory essay and more contributions but here is what we have so far:

UNESCO is on the news again with the US withdrawal from it (also again). Some coverage points out how this only solidifies China's position and influence in the organization. This is true but not all 1/

Publication day! My article "World heritage and inter/national cultural prestige" is now available online, and it is also part of the special issue I am co-editing with Jelena Subotic ([email protected]) on global heritage politics. 1/

It's publication day! Take a look if you are curious about the narrative modes through which states pursue world heritage recognition

My book “The Politics of World Heritage: Futures, Custodians and Visions of Humanity,” is out with OUP, and there is even a 30% discount code (AUFLY30)! What is the book about you ask? global.oup.com/academic/pro...

It's fantastic, and you should definitely read it!🤯💥🔥

I can’t wait to get my hands on a copy of @elifkalay.bsky.social’s new book, The Politics of World Heritage! Will be one to watch! academic.oup.com/book/59660

Trying to distract before ISA NE with the program chair extraordinaire @elifkalay.bsky.social

A new plot twist in restitution politics? @jelenasubotic.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/culture/2023...

With ISA-NE done, time to refocus all attention on this talk at the American University that I am hugely excited about! www.eventbrite.com/e/politics-o...

ISA-Northeast has a new president (🙋🏽‍♀️) and program chair (@elifkalay.bsky.social)!

And before that- this weekend I'll be at ISA Northeast for an author-meets panel on The Cactus Hunters with some brilliant humans: @kaibosworth.bsky.social, @elifkalay.bsky.social, Rafi Youatt, Elizabeth Mendenhall, and Mauro Caraccioli! We are entering the official days of the #CactusHunters

Grim news continues, but if you are in the Tuscaloosa/UA orbit, my Alabama book launch is next Friday, November 10th from 3-4:30 in the Camellia Room of Gorgas Library. I'll be in conversation with the incomparable @elifkalay.bsky.social and Julia Brock (History). It should be fun! #Geosky.

Ahoy-hoy, folks. I had a few minutes, so I created a new feed for IR Theory called, well, IR Theory. Keywords are IRTheory and/or IRTsky. It's a PoliSky subfeed, so there's no new list to sign up for. Give it a follow, if that's your kind of thing.

A happy classroom moment is when you put students in a circle, ask a question to start the discussion, and a student says "I was going to take the conversation in another direction," and poses their own question. Also, cat picture, because internet.

Like most journals on a four-issues-by-year schedule, EJIR has a September issue. The 2023 one is online and on behalf of our authors, we would like to draw your attention to it. We think it rocks and we hope you agree! Polisky journals.sagepub.com/toc/EJT/curr...

Since I couldn't decide on an inaugural post, I'll start with this thank you to @liselhintz.bsky.social! (It was probably going to be cat content to no surprise)
