Är du nöjd nu @magdalenaandersson.socialdemokraterna.se? När din ”strama” politik kör ut ungdomar som Afnan, 21. När Köpings sossar inte längre känner igen sitt parti. När politiken du skryter om förstör livet för din egen valarbetare. ”Sverige verkar inte vilja ha mig”

Mona Juul, senior Norwegian diplomat, charged on suspicion of aggravated corruption linked to the #EpsteinFiles.
This the end of Norway’s self-image as a force for good?
Grattis!

We're recruiting 2 PhD candidates in human geography here in Uppsala, one position focused on urban/housing issues and one in political ecology.
Please spread the word/repost etc. Being a PhD student in Sweden is a good gig.

När vi grundade Solidariska byggare var det få som trodde att Stockholm återigen skulle få en syndikalistisk fackförening för byggnadsarbetare.
Ännu färre lär ha anat att vi skulle få en fackförening för lantarbetare. Men nu finns den!

Israel har alltså bara börjat riva FNs kontor för palestinska flyktingar i Jerusalem och avfyrar dessutom tårgas mot en FN-skola på Västbanken och omvärlden bara rycker på axlarna

🧵 Maybe you ask yourself why Israelis turn out to be genocidal even at a young age
As a person who grew up in the Israeli education system, there’s a number of reasons for it:
1. The Nakba is seen as an actual celebration ("Independence Day") occupation of lands is a national pride

A small year-in-review: 🔟 things from my research & writing:
1) Talks on Against the Crisis (@versobooks.bsky.social), from US/Canada, to Glasgow, Dublin, London, Paris & Ljubljana. Met so many great people. Grateful for all of it.

O capitalismo se reproduz por meio de crises, agravando a ruptura metabólica inerente ao seu processo de produção de mais valia e mercadoria, e gerando a crise climática. Leia a resenha de @antbarros.bsky.social sobre "Against the Crisis", de @holgersen.bsky.social 👇

That's it. Next year will be much quieter from me, as I’m focusing on writing a new book. If I disappear from social media in 2026: not dead, just working 🫡
PS: Also lots of good stuff happening outside research & writing 2025, but that’s for IRL...
PPS: Happy New Year everyone 🎉
10) Some political writings in Swedish, in @internationalen.bsky.social, on that I left the Left Party (long frustrated over climate, then leaving over Gaza) and I am now joining the new party The Future Left.
E.g. here: internationalen.se/for-en-battr...
Or here:
9) A two-part essay in @journalspectre.bsky.social , drawing on history and theory to reflect on the next economic crisis. I think it received far less attention than it deserved — so feel free to circulate 😉
*What Are We Waiting For? Part 1: Socialist Reflections on the Next Economic Crisis*
8) I made my first (and last?) reel!
YOLO!
7)
*Class, Climate and Cities: Why is ‘sustainability’ most popular at an urban scale?*, in @ijurresearch.bsky.social.
Arguing that the urban scale is where the capitalist class can most easily colour their investments ‘green’ without confronting the overall power of fossil capital.
6)

*Green national paradox? How the far right turned Sweden from a (reputed) pioneer of climate mitigation to an obstructor*, in @politicalgeography.bsky.social
