[No Cold War @NoColdWar]

"Europe is a garden. The rest of the world is a jungle. And the jungle could invade the garden."

"Europeans have to be much more engaged with the rest of the world. Otherwise, the rest of the world will invade us."

1. It is with great sadness that we learn the news of Bruno Latour’s passing today. He was an intellectual giant, a friend, & someone whose work inspired me greatly. A thread for those who want to know more about this extraordinary life.

The state of Baroda introduced free and compulsory primary education in India 🇮🇳 for the first time in 1906.

At a time when motorized vehicles were rare, the Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III of Baroda in what is today Gujarat introduced 500 mobile public libraries on wheels!

The British developed mass education for social control. But in India, indigenous education empowered both individuals and society.
