This is visible also in the most recent developments, with the renewed obsession with competitiveness that is leading to a new wave of deregulation, and the increase in EU-backed military spending (2)

With @gemmagasseau.bsky.social we have a new short piece in Capital & Class, where we analyse continuties and changes in European economic governance. We argue that, despite the changes since the pandemic, EU integration remains centered on neoliberalism (1)

What's changing and what's not in European Economic Governance in the current conjuncture? With @bigmacca.bsky.social we address the question in this short piece just published journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... DM if interested but don't have access!

I had some fun writing an accessible text for learners seeking resources to problematize mainstream economics. This is especially meaningful to me because since my bachelor's in economics, I have spent much of the past decade thinking about how to study politically the economy shorturl.at/lohRl

read this fascinating review article from @gemmagasseau.bsky.social in @ripejournal.bsky.social that sets out an IPE of water governance engaging social reproduction theory www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

During my PhD I often had to explain how I am a 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭 and at the same time researching 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫, so I ended up writing a piece about it! Reviewing five excellent books, I trace the (porous) contours of an IPE of water, and argue that it should be feminist, critical and relational.

Just published in “Governance”. Our analysis shows that the shift to a new economic governance regime after 2008 provided EU leaders with new tools that allowed them to revive their stalled rail and water commodification agenda; at the price of accentuating the EU democratic & justice deficit.
