Really excited to see this out in the world after many years of work. Like all academic books it costs far too much, but if you are interested in Frankfurt School Critical Theory in IR and where it went wrong please do order it into your library

Pleased to share our new article in which we critically engage with the role that the “categories of migration” play in determining who does and does not “belong” in Europe and how they are changing. Thank you to the SI editors for including us in this important collection.

[Amnesty EU @AmnestyEU]

Disgraceful. Shameful.

The EU can't even muster the barest minimum measures to even start to hold Israel to account.

This failure comes just as Israeli human rights organizations join others in finding that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

[Amnesty UK @AmnestyUK]

Empty words from the Foreign Secretary - the statement lacks any resolve, leadership or action to help end the genocide in Gaza. 1/4🧵

[Liverpool Your Party @LPOOLYOURPARTY]

How can the police justify this treatment of a 76-year-old pensioner?

Audrey White and others were expressing an opinion and protesting against tens of thousands of deaths at the hands of the IDF.

[eyal weizman @weizman_eyal]

We broke down the logic of Israel’s policy of starvation, its architecture, and aims, showing how engineered starvation (and its supposed mitigation) is used as a tool to break Palestinian society.

[Dr. Abi O'Connor @abioconnor_]

There are not the words to describe how callous this current government is. Their betrayal of the Hillsborough families, the city of Liverpool & communities everywhere is palpable

Let us be clear: the government are choosing to vote against public servants being held accountable

[Max Jerneck @MaxJerneck]

Free movement applies to capital only

[Festival Grounded @grounded_si]

After a minute of reflection upon hearing the news that the US imposed sanctions against her, the response of @FranceskAlbs needed no translation, reassuring that there is no stepping back in working for justice and freedom for all. ❤️✊

A brilliant piece on italian leftist responses to zionism & the '67 war & technicized myth & fascism

🚨BREAKING: We’re deeply concerned at the use of counter terrorism powers to target protest groups.

This is the latest in a succession of measures taken by the UK government to clamp down on protest in the UK.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

While #Madleen must be released immediately, every Mediterranean port should send boats with aid, solidarity, and humanity to Gaza. They shall sail together—united, they will be unstoppable.

#BreakingTheSiege is a legal duty for states, and a moral imperative for all of us.

One of many moments in Omar El Akkad’s new book, “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This,” that will stop you in your tracks.

[Nicola Pratt @ncpratt]

Rest in peace Hossam Shabat - yet another Palestinian journalist murdered by Israel. May there be accountability for this war crime and all other Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people.

[UCU Ulster @UCU_Ulster]

Tutors at SOAS have refused to mark en masse & have currently disrupted over 4100 assessments 💪

Unsurprisingly, management has refused to negotiate & is instead contacting other UK unis in to recruit a network of scabs

⚠️*DO NOT accept marking work coming from SOAS* ‼️
