Great read. Agree that equality means too many different things to different people. Conceptual clarity helps some, but as I’ve argued in @PracticalEqual, sometimes the better answer is to disaggregate the idea and do the work of equality by other means.

HISTORY JOB 🏺 🔎 🗺️ The Department of History and Political Science @Ashland_Univ seeks applications for a tenure track Assistant/Associate Professor, with a preferred focus on teaching Medieval to mid-20th Century European/Atlantic history. The department will begin reviewing applications mid-November and begin contacting applicants for phone interviews by December 1. https://t.co/qppmPhHBsA

[Teresa M. Bejan @tmbejan]

Agreed, but one needs to be clear-eyed about the opportunity costs as well.

[Zena Hitz @zenahitz]

No, it is not unreasonable. A PhD in a substantive field, with reasonable support and a good community is worth doing for its own sake, if you have the opportunity

[Teresa M. Bejan @tmbejan]

An important paper, the Levellers’ political, as well as economic, objections to monopoly have been unjustly neglected!

[Kaarish Shah Maniar @kaarishmaniar]

Excited to share that my article is now out with @MIHJournal!

I argue that the Levellers’ antimonopoly thought was not merely about securing free trade from ‘the State,’ but was constitutive of their demands for popularly legitimated public authority.
