Just came across this photograph of Lisandro Otero, James Baldwin and Arthur Miller in my grandfather’s archive, from a meeting on world peace held in the Soviet Union in October 1986, convened by the Kyrgyz writer Chinghiz Aitmatov. #JamesBaldwin #WorldPeace

Paperback copies of Spectacles of Waste @politybooks.bsky.social have at last wended their way to far-off Sydney. Tempted as I was to send a picture from the beach, this will have to do. The 'excremental turn' in history of science and medicine and STS, gradually seeping out #STS #histsci #histstm
