When you’re going to a TWAIL conference but all the hotels near campus seem to have names like this 🙃

Rereading my PhD thesis and just found this golden typo. I’m somewhat happy I didn’t correct it before submission - it’s more accurate this way tbh

Job alert: @ucberkeleylaw.bsky.social is hiring a legal historian! aprecruit.berkeley.edu/JPF04914 Via @legalhistoryblog.bsky.social

I’m heading to Australia in August! Excited to attend @annasaunders.bsky.social and @wanshucong.bsky.social’s workshop on IL and technology from below. Any other events that would be fun for a Marxist IL scholar? Would love to meet up with comrades and colleagues - reach out if you’re around💖

Knowing that my work actually resonates with people makes it feel so meaningful and worth all of the struggle. Thanks for reading and for sharing, @malteengeler.bsky.social! Happy to send a digital copy to anyone interested - feel free to reach out 😊

Executive committee member @mariethogersen.bsky.social brilliantly defending her PhD, “Ruling the Cloud - A Critique of International Cyber Law” - and beginning with a denouncement of the University of Copenhagen for their collaboration with Israeli universities complicit in the Gaza genocide ✨🙌✊🇵🇸

the pic doesn’t do justice, but @mariethogersen.bsky.social is smashing it at her doctoral defence😎

I wrote a review of @brunoleipold.com's brilliant book:

Danish Marxism making headlines. Brilliant colleague and comrade @routhier.bsky.social on the front page of the Danish public service news provider, explaining why he declined a Fulbright scholarship for a research stay at NYU @dkmarxsoc.bsky.social

Danish marxist @mariethogersen.bsky.social will be defending her PhD thesis, "Ruling the Cloud: A Critique of International Cyber Law" at University of Copenhagen 😍 Please join us on June 2nd if you want to see something as rare as a Danish Marxist PhD in international law💅 cms.ku.dk/preview/4932...

Just got the exciting news that my PhD thesis has been accepted for defence 👏 It'll take place on June 2, 12:00, at UCPH and online. If you wanna start your week with a boost of fresh Danish Marxism, please join - I'd be thrilled to see some friendly faces! More details will follow soon 💕

So I wrote about why I declined my Fulbright grant and canceled my research stay at NYU. Free Khalil, free all political prisoners, free Palestine 🇵🇸 politiken.dk/del/mN-u9dAE...

An astonishing statistic. And the fact that we created a world where that is virtually logistically impossible is a real detriment and very sad. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Come hear @kmunro-econ.bsky.social talk about her exciting research in Copenhagen✨ The talk is free and open to everyone!

The most peculiar aspect of writing might be the seamless coexistence of the two concerns, “if I don’t get shit done soon someone else might run with my idea” and “my idea absolutely sucks”

Just received this new volume, which makes a much-needed intervention into the mainstream legal literature on international organizations. I’ll be discussing it next week at CBS with editors Negar Mansouri and @drqv.bsky.social - come by if you’re in Copenhagen, or join us virtually! 🔥

I'm moving to Sweden with Marie! We're looking to rent a traditional Swedish farmhouse in the Gothenburg area starting in September — if anyone has any leads, let me know!

Moving moving to Gothenburg, Sweden! 🧵 1/4 Due to the increasingly unapologetic fascism in the US, @sorenmau.bsky.social and I have decided to cancel our American adventure for now.

The freshest of fresh Danish Marxism ‼️📣 Out now from @esbenboegh.bsky.social and Markus Hansen - on capitalist transitions and Danish farmer cooperatives. Get it here 👇🌸💖 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

So sad to hear about Joshua Clover’s passing. "Riot. Strike. Riot" has had a major influence on me. I was lucky to get the chance to meet this generous, kind, and brilliant thinker at MIR's summer seminar in the mountains of California last year. My first interaction with Joshua was when... 1/3

Listening to @anastasiyakotova.bsky.social’s talk on her brilliant work on corporate harm and international criminal law is the perfect start of the day

Given the all-encompassing drift towards further anti-Palestinian hysteria, right now I honestly can’t see a viable, realistic scenario for ESIL 2025 happening at @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social without putting participating (non-German) scholars at severe risk of state repression.

Last year the sessions were packed!🥵 And even though it was lovely sitting very close to great comrades🥰 we've made sure to book more space this year. So if you want to present your paper in these rooms which are hopefully going to be filled with 💕marxists💕 pls submit your abstract before May 1st!

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our new IG! We hope to bring more critical conversations about law and society within ESIL & welcome old & new members who also think that critique is a tool to construct a better law - a better world! Reach out with your ideas and ?s & watch the space 👀

Which research environments in Canada are strong for critical legal scholarship? I'm particularly looking for places that support Marxist legal theory, international law, and critical legal geography. Any recommendations?

Thesis submitted! Ruling the Cloud: A Critique of International Cyber Law

✨CALL FOR ABSTRACTS✨ We are excited to publish the Call for Abstracts for our 10th annual conference: ABOLITION. The conference will take place at Aarhus University, Denmark, on 10-11 October 2025. As usual, we also accept papers outside this year's theme! marxistiskestudier.com/2025/03/06/c...

Two more weeks until my PhD submission date! I’ve stacked up the fridge and barricaded myself in @sorenmau.bsky.social’s cabin, not leaving until this baby is out of my hands. Any advice for handling these terrifying final hours is appreciated 💕

who has written something good about the potential uses of digital technologies in a post-capitalist world, from a perspective that is critical of FALC/accelerationism-style tech-optimism yet also does not reject that digital technologies might come in handy under communism?

LPE friends, big announcement! 🔥🔥 This Sept, the first annual LPE conference, launching a new LPE Association! Been working hard on this, with an amazing crowd of LPE fac and groups - more here: law.richmond.edu/faculty/Inau....

In the last 3 months of 2024, I applied for 51 academic jobs; 3 in Denmark, 48 in the US. After waiting and waiting and waiting, the results are in: I made it to one shortlist, had one Zoom interview, and received zero offers. This market is so brutal. In other words: I'm still looking for a job!

I’m very disappointed in my algorithm

Here's your friendly reminder to send your application for the Law & Marxism Spring School 🤩 Deadline 10/2! Share this with your favourite scholar activists! We can't wait to meet you in May 😻

Based on the first edition I’d say everyone should go! 🔥

Danish Marxism in my hometown 💕

The editors of Völkerrechtsblog are calling for blog posts for the fourth 'Women in International Law' symposium - this year with a particular focus on women and armed conflict, but submissions on any topic are welcome. Deadline 3 February 2025. voelkerrechtsblog.org/call-for-pap...

Oh the irony of trying to write about the deteriorating effects of digital technologies while struggling with a constant urge to doomscroll instead

wait but i thought the big threat from AI was it exceeding our intelligence and destroying humanity. are you telling me it has real-world consequences today me should actually be concerned about?!

The ovulation tracking app, "Ovia", now mandates you identify what state you live in. Delete immediately and warn other women.

Ending the year with good news: this week I received funding for a postdoc project on urban waste, which aims to see waste like a city and will dive into the world of urban politics, ecology and waste colonialism. For the hygge description of the project, see www.carlsbergfondet.dk/det-har-vi-s...

Moving myself out of the lurkers' backseat here: I'm a critical urban scholar, studying capitalism and post-capitalism in the city and currently interested in waste, urban metabolism and diverse economies. Based in Copenhagen at the moment and proud almost-Danish member of Danish Marxism

Casually celebrating that I just received a 1.000.000 kr grant from the Carlsberg Foundation for my next research project, Borders and Boundlessness: A Critical Geography of International Law in Global Capitalism ✨

🌎🌡️ Big news: The EU-Mercosur trade agreement was finalised yesterday—despite pushback from member states and environmentalists 🌱 @herminevc.bsky.social & I have just published research on the legally binding commitment to effectively implement the Paris Agreement present herein (1/4) 👇

Hvis vi virkelig støtter #ICC, er der andre dele af økosystemet, vi ikke må glemme. #JustSites kronik i @information.dk #dkpol: www.information.dk/debat/2024/1...

That’s because their feet can survive in them for two days of conference

Today I 1) was invited to debate ICC’s arrest warrant in the radio with the notorious Israel apologist Jotam Confino, and 2) received birthday flowers from my bank (is that a normal part of adult life with a mortgage??). Seriously, the liberal “let’s all be friends” energy has gone too far.

Got these matching beauties with @sorenmau.bsky.social today and I adore them! But also, any advice on how to finish a PhD thesis without using a keyboard is much appreciated…

It’s publication day! press.princeton.edu/books/hardco...

The initial “Marx, Marxism, Critical Theory, etc.” starter pack is now full, so I have created “Part II,” which is growing rapidly. Please share if you find them helpful and if you think I should add someone or missed you, please reach out. go.bsky.app/5GR8AAt
