There will be nothing normal about this summer or, no matter what happens, this fall. Except of course for my normal approach to my sabbatical, to whit: get the hell out of Dodge.
And those in attendance will skew right due to lack of concern about carbon footprints and union solidarity, I suppose.
Took me a while.
By far and away my most cited paper is one I'm very fond of but that is a complete outlier to my research agenda. Apparently my readership would prefer that I do something else.
Present Me v. Future Me, by David Hume: 'In reflecting on any action, which I am to perform a twelve-month hence, I always resolve to prefer the greater good ... But on my nearer approach, those circumstances, which I first overlooked, begin to appear...' I hear you, Dave.
Congratulations!

The first news of the day I got was that police had been called in. Not on campus these days but that struck me as unwarranted.
This is a great idea. I had exercises but they were not strictly reading focused. And in my text-heavy course I did nothing specific to incentivise reading. Next year!
We are hiring! SOAS Department of Politics and International Studies invites applications for 2 Lecturer/Senior Lecturer positions. The search is open as to research specialism. Critical theoretical approaches and regional expertise would be a plus. Details below.

Or just another Montréal April?
For someone like me in a discipline in which jurisdiction matters, this would be infuriating. But then, who is in a discipline in which place doesn't matter?
If anyone needs my attention in the next few days, tough luck. I'm reading The Adversary by Michael Crummey and am not in a position to put it down.
I completely agree! Watches are better than phones for telling time, and look much better on the wrist to boot.
Try Hopper.

I'm delighted to share the news that I will be at Sciences Po in Paris in autumn 2024. J'ai très hâte de retrouver des collègues et ami.es à Sciences Po, en France, et un peu partout en Europe - et, bien sûr, de devenir un snob total par rapport aux croissants!
Penalty: 6 more months as chair.
