Aharoni, Amalia Sa’ar, @bohdanakurylo.bsky.social, Nick Vaughan-Williams & Hannah Owens

This is an important point. In addition to the odiousness of the suggestion, if you wanted to flambé the UK economy I can’t think of a better way.

Thrilled to have a chapter in this new book, now published with @manchesterup.bsky.social. My chapter with @michaellister.bsky.social looks at UK security policies and priorities, including in relation to COVID, terrorism, and austerity.

Great, balanced @politicalquarterly.bsky.social essay on the unhappy rise of laws named after victims onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

New article in @politicalquarterly.bsky.social w/ @michaellister.bsky.social & @apowelllaw.bsky.social on the naming of laws after exemplary victims of injustice. While opening space for addressing harm, such laws also, we argue, pose political & legal risks: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Great working with @apowelllaw.bsky.social and @leejarvis.bsky.social on this piece about the increasing prevalence of naming laws after specific people. Open Access at the link 👇

Groups like Al Qaeda used to be the antithesis of older terrorisms like the IRA. Now they're often seen as equivalent. What's going on with our temporal imaginaries of terrorism? And why does it matter? New E-IR piece w/ Andrew Whiting & @michaellister.bsky.social: www.e-ir.info/2025/01/29/r...

New blog post about how we think about terrorism and time, with @leejarvis.bsky.social and Andy Whiting. Short thread: (1/n) www.e-ir.info/2025/01/29/r...

Fascinating new open access article from @leejarvis.bsky.social and @michaellister.bsky.social. They argue, in short, that we critical security/terrorism scholars told you so, but that converging with the mainstream raises questions for the critical project. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

The special issue's final piece, by @michaellister.bsky.social & me, asks what happens to critical security thinking when its ideas and arguments achieve (or appear to achieve) wider currency: www.cambridge.org/core/journal... (Thread, 11/12)
