Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.

@evolvepolitics That's not even the name of the constituency!

Superb #SEP2024 session on Simone de Beauvoir with Anna Cornelia Ploug (Copenhagen) on concrete contradictions in The Second Sex and Katja Čičigoj (Klagenfurt) on gendered forms of subjectivation structuring lived experience.

There are only two possible Governments that could be formed by this election.

And there are three possible Oppositions.

Great talk from Juliana de Albuquerque (University College Cork) on Hannah Arendt's theory of the primacy of experience over theory and the centrality of stories to ethical and political understanding.

75 years ago #onthisday the first volume of Simone de Beauvoir’s The Second Sex was published. Within a week, it sold over 20,000 copies. Within months, Beauvoir expressed astonishment that it attracted the attention—and attacks—that it did.
