I’m in this issue, with a piece on the politics of “complexity.” Everybody — from the Black Panthers to the neoliberals — praises complex systems thinking, an idea rooted in the physical sciences, and I try to figure out if we’re all really talking about this same thing.

You can pre-order now!

Forever impressed by the incredible work that @adriennebuller.bsky.social has done to create The Breakdown, and their new issue is out next month. It's going to be a good one!

May 6th at The Art House with some special guests, c u there @the-breakdown.bsky.social @johnmerrick.bsky.social

“Private equity, at its worst, is capturing the debt servicing capacity of a company to enrich financiers while making life worse for other people”

@johnmerrick.bsky.social sat down with @hettieobrien.bsky.social to talk about the rise of private equity and her new book, The Asset Class

Need a bit of that myself!

Doubt I’ll have the time or energy to ever write any of the book ideas I’ve had

This is a brilliant series of essays on the side gigs writers do to be able to keep writing

Thrilled that my paper (w/@sarahobolt.bsky.social,@catherinedevries.bsky.social,@simonecremaschi.bsky.social) was accepted at the American Political Science Review!

We find that declining public services fuel support for the populist right — and show why the right benefits more than other parties 🧵

Dead on here; obnoxious to the point of insanity on there. And all I want is somewhere to talk about good articles and books with mates!

North Sea Nationalisms Fantasies of Britain’s past continue to shape the country's energy politics and illusions.

"Nationalist North Sea fantasies centre on a secure future being denied by petulant red-green forces too stubborn to take advantage of the gifts supplied by divine providence."

New from @ewangibbs.bsky.social on nationalism and the North Sea, past & present
