Have you voted in the ESA elections? You should have received a link and codes to our voting platform via email. If you haven’t received, please check out voting information (https://t.co/qQ0Ae9qx7v). The ESA Office is happy to help!

[Dr. Laura Horn @LauraLoHorn]

ESA members, please remember to vote in the elections - and make sure to contact the office if you haven't received your voting link yet!

COVID19 is exacerbating societal fault lines+ inequalities, and the ecological crisis requires fundamental social transformations. Social sciences are increasingly marginalized/under attack; academia more and more characterized by high workloads, precarity and underfunding. 2/10

[Dr. Laura Horn @LauraLoHorn]

Most importantly, if you're an ESA member, PLEASE VOTE! The turnout in 2019 was 25%. Let's make sure to increase that this year. 10/10

[Dr. Laura Horn @LauraLoHorn]

There are three candidates for the Presidency this year, next to me there are also Pertti Alasuutari (Tampere) and Ligia Ferro (Porto). Make sure to also check out their profiles. 9/10 https://t.co/wXg0Bfqytc

[Dr. Laura Horn @LauraLoHorn]

My significant experience within the ESA, and as an academic activist, make me a very strong candidate for President - one who can bring the Executive Committee, RNs, NAs and membership together to deal with both current and future challenges. PM/email me to hear more! 7/10

[Dr. Laura Horn @LauraLoHorn]

ESA membership contributions should go to a transparent+democratic association characterized by inclusivity+ accessibility of its events, publications and membership, especially for scholars in marginalized and/or precarious positions. 5/10

[Dr. Laura Horn @LauraLoHorn]

Achieving this requires a professional, well governed and robust organization! ESA has to be a good employeer with respect for employee rights + professional working environment; with a well-functioning office+staff who can draw on and develop their skills and expertise 4/10

[Dr. Laura Horn @LauraLoHorn]

I am convinced of ESA’s potential to make a difference across Europe and beyond, despite formidable societal challenges. We need to be outspoken, influential, and proactive advocates for the interests of sociology, and social science generally. 3/10

David Morgan obituary https://t.co/pHGbrHLmoZ
My obituary for David - he was such a wonderful friend and colleague. Part of so many people's sociological lives - his legacy lives on.

[sue scott @sjsprof]

I’ve been off Twitter for a week since the death of my friend and colleague David H J Morgan. So glad I saw him, and that we did some work together, in early March. I just can’t imagine the sociological landscape without him, he was just so special academically and personally.

I'm reading famous Sociologist Bruno Latour talking about how the lockdown has been a kind of retreat, a moment for reflection, even for those of us who aren't spiritual. Not for parents of young children, parents of teens, or carers, or everyone who had to carry on working, omg.
