Welcome to Bologna, #EISAPEC2025! We’re having a Concepts and Theories section get together tonight- come by for some casual “networking”. We’ll be sitting outside at Piazza Giuseppe Verdi from 8-9:30, likely in front of Bar Freud & Cantoncino (look for the EISA lanyards). All welcome!

Can’t wait! Come say hello!

Cannot *wait* to make use of this space for some experimentation! Send us any and all ideas it sparks for you!!

Two days left to get your applications in for EISA's Bologna Conference! If a trip to Italy isn't enough, how about a space entirely focused on theoretical and conceptual conversations? We've got some exciting programming in the works- I'll drop a teaser tomorrow!

Thinking about applying to the @europeanisa.bsky.social conference but looking for a place to discuss the concepts and theories that cut across all our work? well do I have NEWS for YOU

Had a fantastic time in Chicago at @isanet.bsky.social, but the jet-lag is kicking my butt, whew

We want to use the symposium as an opportunity: not just to critique what exists, but to practice new kinds of scholarship together. As we prepare the call for papers, remember that we want to encourage interventions in a wider range of formats!

Definitely 'Race and Revolution at Bwa Kayiman- cannot quantify how meaningful this piece has been. @robbieshilliam.bsky.social's work inspired me to think more creatively about what my scholarship could be. journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

🖊 It's day two of #ISA2025 and we're doing another prize giveaway! Post here or on X telling us what your favourite article in Millennium is and remember to tag us! The winner will be notified at 4PM about when to stop by our booth to collect their prize. Good luck, ISA!

Headed to my first booth shift now- come say hi!

🤳Hey #ISA2025! Come swing by our booth in the Exhibition Hall today and post a photo or selfie of your visit to enter a prize giveaway! We'll be announcing the winner at 4PM. You can also drop by just to pick up a Millennium bookmark! Can't wait to see your photos 📸

Who's going to be at @isanet.bsky.social in Chicago?? Stop by and say hi at the @millennjournal.bsky.social booth in the exhibition hall!!!!

an excellent summary- now I need to read the whole book!!

Viva tomorrow. Terrified. But skimming my thesis again actually made me feel more confident in what I submitted. Going to do my best. See y’all on the other side- hopefully with good news

genuinely jealous of this tweet. i would have been delighted to have posted it myself

Luigi got them shook.

Academic job market: 2024: I’m overqualified but so are the 900 other applicants 1974: I’ve scrawled this idea down on a cocktail napkin, please direct me to the tenure

If someone's primary function as a leftist is curation -- dividing leftists whose politics are good enough from those who should be condemned for their insufficiencies -- plz understand, that's brand work. That's not organizing. It's not building anything. Those people aren't offering you anything.

*every academic submitting a piece for an edited collection/special issue etc* “ok the thing is, im not gonna make the deadline, but the travails i have suffered! i am but a smol bean” *every academic editing a collection etc, putting on cop costume* “OH OH! jail for a thousand years!”

Starting your most incoherent sentence with "put simply" to deflect blame onto the reader

hard copy in hand for viva practice- four days out and NERVOUS

follow to keep up with the exploits of volume 54 (and beyond!)

Excited that there are at least a few people out there reading our last paper- we hoped someone would find it useful. Open access and "trending" @journalpolitics.bsky.social at number 4! feat. Lydia Hiraide, @carolineleicht.bsky.social, @elsabmeuller.bsky.social, and @katiepruszynski.bsky.social

Yes person on the internet Syrians are aware that everything isn’t perfect and that there are challenges ahead. I think they didn’t need you to tell them that given that it’s been 5 decades of tyranny and no country ever emerged from tyranny without challenges ahead.

I like to do this when I’m using quotes where philosophers automatically generalise he/him pronouns

are you being for real right now

Practice viva today!!! 10 days until the real thing!!!

Another day at the office- see you at the editorial board meeting later!!

interfolio wrapped just dropped 😍😘💗

chatting with my students before class and I realised that I talk about politics the way men talk about sports: "Did you see South Korea last night???"

something that is especially clear if you have studied colonialism a bit: a load bearing aspect of maintaining even a semblance of democracy (or defending a sitting autocracy from democracy) is having a military that is unwilling to kill its own citizens

Hi new friends! For anyone also making the leap from The Other Place to Bluesky, here's an efficient way to find all the people you used to follow! schepp.dev/posts/move-y...

Fellow writers, I come bearing bad news. #AcWri #AcademicSky #WritingSky

Excited to share that Taylor Borowetz, Rhiannon Emm, and I have been elected to co-edit Millennium: Journal of International Studies Vol.54! ✨ So grateful for this opportunity. Looking forward to building on the great work of the Vol. 53 Eds. (This post reads a bit too LinkedIny - BUT THRILLED!)

Hey, that's us! If you're interested in the early-career experience in UK academia, or trying to theorize what "solidarity" could mean and how to build it, give it a read!
