Just finished recording the first episode of the new podcast ‘Major Revisions’ by Aurora Hamm from @eui-history.bsky.social with whom we opened up about failures and missed opportunities of the academic life and what we can hopefully learn from them. Scheduled to air in January, so stay tuned 🎧

I couldn't find a #FeministIR starter pack, so I took a first rather random stab at it. As I am bound to have missed relevant people (still struggling with the platform), so please let me know if you would like to be added. Apologies in advance.

The ADHOCISM dataset is out! 📣 So happy to share that our article on military ad hoc coalitons (AHCs) has found a home in International Peacekeeping Journal. The article is open access here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
Grateful for the opportunity to present our draft w. @stephofmann.bsky.social & @raffaelemstr.bsky.social on ad hoc coalitions #AHCs in and across time. More food for thought on the politics of ADHOCISM and other alternative forms of global governance 💭

In this fourth SI article, @anaprokhorov.bsky.social analyses peacekeeping and the changing nature of peacekeepers’ protection duties through the lens of norm contestation.

Privileged to have been part of this Special Issue connecting peace operations & peacebuilding with the shifts in the global order. Many thanks to @sarahellmuller.bsky.social and @fannybadache.bsky.social for their guidance along the way and @cspjournal.bsky.social for their editorial support.
It is instrumental to distinguish between cosmopolitan and state-centric R2P, when it comes to norm contestation, and between militarised protectors of individual bodies and police protectors of order and stability, when it comes to peace operations.
📝 in my latest article in CSP I investigate how norms like POC and R2P normalized particular images of protectors in UN peace operations. I develop the concept of productive contestation to highlight the political and normalising work of norms: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
Building on the feminist critique of the liberal framework centering a sovereign state/individual, we propose to rethink protection as relational, communal and two-sided.
📝 in our collective intervention for CSoS on the politics of protection, @louiseridden.bsky.social and I contributed a short piece troubling what the ‘self’ stands for in self-protection: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
Drawing on ideas around ‘performance’ I analyzed how special advisers to the SG can reshape norms like R2P in their public statements becoming more of ‘performative leaders’ than conventional norm entrepreneurs.
📝 in my (first ever) paper in GR2P I explored how individual agency can matter in rigid and bureaucratic organizations like the UN: brill.com/view/journal...
Long wanted to do a short thread on my research journey so far and this seems like the right time, so here goes:
Kicking off today: the 3rd Joint EUI-IHEID PhD Workshop, convened by Prof. Guzzini and @cmparreira.bsky.social.
Two days of in-depth discussion, cross-institutional exchange with @gvagrad.bsky.social, and cutting-edge research at the SPS Department.
