Not a humble brag (ok, maybe a little), but if somebody wants the chapter I wrote from this very expensive Oxford Handbook, please send me an email. This is not the best figure, but I promise the others are worth it! Transitional Justice and Elite Polarization url: academic.oup.com/edited-volum...
The post below had the wrong link for the American Politics search. Here is the correct one: apply.interfolio.com/172740
Come and work with me! The University of Chicago is searching in Quantitative Methods (apply.interfolio.com/172391) and American Politics (apply.interfolio.com/172394. My colleagues on the search committee will also be attending APSA.
It was an honor and privilege to be part of this project. If you are teaching introductory courses in political science or any undergraduate courses, this is the textbook for you!
Must be because they are calculating the Chicago ballots…

Other schools would do the same for us. Please sign if you are a faculty member at UChicago!

Statement on the Academic Freedom and Independence of U.S. Institutions of Higher Education
The American Political Science Association (APSA) is deeply concerned by recent attacks on the independence of colleges and universities in the United States. Over the past few weeks, there have been…
So proud of Suyash’s firm Massey and Gale for joining this amicus brief with 500 other law firms: thehill.com/regulation/c...
Except for that lame MFR you had, right? 😂
This year we will be in Michigan in August. Apply if you are midway through your PhD program in the social sciences to learn from the best in the discipline how theory and empirical methods come together!
With research universities in the US under threat, this statement from Page Fortna offers a glimmer of hope. There is still leadership potential at our universities. Page used to be the Chair of Political Science, where I got my degree. This statement from her makes me once more proud of Columbia.
Is the promise of American Acedmia for which many of us sacrificed so much, about to be eroded? It certainly is starting to look that way. From Paul Mussgrave "The Closing of the American Minds" open.substack.com/pub/musgrave...
Everyone worried about Columbia (and US academia) should read this. Thank you Vicky, Alison. Page, Turkuler, and Elizabeth! And massive thanks to @dandrezner.bsky.social for hosting this GUEST POST: We Are Professors at Columbia. Here is How We Would Respond. open.substack.com/pub/danieldr...
This is a long way of saying that if this happened to Mahmood, the same could happen to hundreds; no, thousands of students, post-docs, and faculty, as well. And when it does, who is going to teach your kids, and what universities will you even send them to?
Most of us arrive here on student visas that expire unless we get an academic job, and even then, we have to first apply for a 3-year visa before even being eligible to apply for a green card. The green card is the holy grail of permanent status.
Perhaps he was even arrested while walking into one of the buildings where I lived/ Mahmood was a green card holder. Many of my friends might not know this, but very few foreign-born students are green card holders.
Twenty years ago, I was learning to teach at Columbia University, and for all I know, I could have TA-ed a student like Mahmood Khalil, who has been arrested by ICE and flown out of state by ICE agents, all while holding a green card.
The choice of Columbia in particular shows that there's *no* amount of suppression of pro-Palestinian speech a university can engage in that will insulate and protect it; so might as well try to do the right thing, which Columbia has determinedly avoided since October 7.

17.5 years ago deep into Sidhwa,Lahiri, and even Rushdie I thought to myself ‘I’d like to go to India.’ The short term consequence was what would be today ‘swiping right’ on my now husband’s match.com profile, but the point is, I finally made it to India! And 24 hours in, it has not disappointed.
What are you waiting for? The run won’t run itself!
Wait! It's two different dogs, which makes it easier: what are their names?
Incredibly memorable. What is his/her name?
Hi all, the APSR is now also here: @apsrjournal.bsky.social (please, RT or whatever it's called here).
