Warum ist diese oft geäußerte Idee, Wissenschaftler*innen, die in den USA ihre Stellen verlieren, könnten ja zu uns kommen, so unsinnig? Nicht nur wegen der Prekärität unserer Strukturen ( #IchBinHanna) und weil es schlicht nicht geht (viele können halt nicht mal schnell den Kontinent wechseln). 1/5

I had a lot fun talking to Jan on his amazing podcast, @futurehistories.bsky.social about climate, decline, adaptation, repair, subjectivity, planning and socialization, with special mentions of Anders, Neurath, and Marcuse. Have a listen and let me know what you think!

Eine der beeindruckendsten Zahlen der Wahl in Deutschland ist für mich das Ausrinnen der FDP(!) zur AfD. 890.000 Wähler_innen sind von der (ohnehin schon kleinen) FDP zur AfD gewandert. Über diese Liberalismus-zu-Rechtsextremismus-Pipeline muss man mal ordentlich diskutieren.

Highly recommended episode. It overlaps with the interview I conducted with Nancy Fraser for our book but focuses on different things. I'm trying to find the time to write a paper on Polanyian planning, because the overlaps of Karl Polanyi, Nancy Fraser and Pat Devine are amazing. 1/2

Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people. Good trade.

Explanation of how the myth of the market being "the natural expression of human freedom" is well a myth. As Right-Wing Libertarians enjoy spreading this myth, we thought it's important to share this explanation.

Looks so interesting, looking forward to reading the papers. I think industrial relations people could engage more with debates around planning: what different approaches to planning might mean for ir systems, and of course vice versa.

I wrote an article for @phenomenalworld.bsky.social about how narratives on 1970s Britain, about particularly the 1974-79 Labour government, misrepresent the experience of that government and the possibilities that it contained, including several alternatives to Thatcherism
