New issue brief:
I examine how a Chinese translation of Anand P. Krishnan’s essay politically reframed foreign scholarship to serve the CPC’s objectives within the Chinese internet sphere.

I will have to physically lock my phone away to stop subtweeting the cynical defences of AI in creative writing and academia. But I can't help but think that the active attempts to enshittify knowledge production are not coincidental to the global hegemony of Fascism

Francesca Orsini has done more for Hindi than many so called lovers of Hindi. To not allow entry to a true lover of languages and literatures of this region, someone who has always told its stories with care, is deeply concerning and heartbreaking.
