An important (German language) take on Adolescence: a complex and productively ambivalent story is very much reduced to one simplified message … not least to trigger social media buzz (about the dangers of social media, of course)

D66 verandert migratiekoers: asielaanvragen alleen nog buiten de EU
"Van migratie die ons overkomt, zullen we naar migratie moeten die we zelf in de hand hebben", zegt partijleider Jetten.
Ik ben eigenlijk wel blij met deze nieuwe duidelijkheid.
Traditioneel slachtoffert D66 migranten pas na de verkiezingen, om zo haar neoliberale beleid door te kunnen voeren met de VVD. Nu is het dus vooraf al bekend.
Geen excuses meer voor de "sociaal-liberale" kiezers.

Lesenwert, weil 1. us-kulturkampf explizit importiert wird, 2. im gegensatz zu usa direkt aus der Unileitung kommt, und 3. es daher keine autoritäre regierung braucht, die in die wissenschaftsfreiheit eingreift, und 4. gesagt wird man müsse auch die AfDler an der Uni verstehen.

Unusual Business: A University Press Goes Private, And No One is the Wiser — G. Geltner
What we know and what we don't know about the privatization of a university press.
2019, G Geltner wrote this helpful blog post on the developments back then: guygeltner.squarespace.com/blog/2582019... it was also published (in Dutch) by @foliacivitatis.bsky.social www.folia.nl/opinie/13133... I hope Folia will pick it up again

Six years ago, 2019, AUP was privatized; the name ‘AUP’ remained property of the University of Amsterdam and had been licensed out to AUP for, we were told back then "a fixed period of time with the possibility to renew". Would be nice to hear more about the new deal.

Greta Thunberg is one of the most coherent and courageous Western activists these days. I wish she and her comrades from @freedomflotilla.bsky.social succeed and live to tell the tale.

“Meiner Ansicht nach sollte niemand mit dieser Universität als Institution kooperieren, zumindest nicht, bis diese Personen, also der Präsident der Hebräischen Universität Asher Cohen und ihr Rektor Tamir Shaefer, abgesetzt worden sind. Dasselbe gilt für die Ben-Gurion-Universität.”

It's been four years since @juergenzimmerer.bsky.social & I called for pluralizing memory culture in Germany & lifting the taboo on comparison. As this week's cancellation of Omri Boehm's speech at Buchenwald for allegedly "comparing" the Holocaust & Nakba shows, our call remains crucial.

Elon Musk takes aim at Wikipedia
The billionaire has become one of the most prominent supporters of President-elect Donald Trump.
If you've never donated to Wikipedia, now's the time. Elon Musk is attacking it because it's one of the only sources of honest, curated information that he can't control.

Antisemitisme, je ziet het pas als je het doorhebt
Als je de baas bent van de club die bepaalt wie wel en wie geen grootse wetenschappelijke carrière kan hebben, heb je niet de vrijheid om individuele wetenschappers zo publiekelijk aan te vallen
