‘Remigration’ is a term that comes out of the European far right. Its use by the DHS account is a sign of democratic and epistemic collapse

Last week, I hosted two exciting #ecolinguistics events at @sdu.dk.

First, Martin Döring (University of Hamburg) presented his work on the usage of ecolinguistic methods in studying local engagement in coastal protection in the Wadden Sea area.

Ever wondered why there is no accessible book-length introduction to ecological economics and the political economy of transitions in Danish?

I know I have, so I tried to write one. It is out tomorrow, asking how we analytically should approach whether it is too little, too late and who benefits.

"This three-day Ph.D. course will provide an introduction to the study of cognition as a social phenomenon. The focus will be on long-standing conceptual issues that continue to inform current work."

Hep. Det går løs på nettet i morgen og i printavisen torsdag. Jeg er begyndt som klummeskribent på Information. Det er jeg rigtig glad for, hvis jeg skal være ærlig.

Meget enig! @ppkzd.bsky.social er fremragende (også) som klummeskribent.

My colleague, MP Victoria Velasquez, has been boarded and unlawfully detained by Israel in international waters while attempting to sail food and medicine to Gaza.
I expect our government to demand the immediate release of Victoria and the other activists, and to condemn Israel’s crimes. #dkpol

Tak, Magnus! Jeg tager chancen med Horkheimer - jeg har allerede to grundbøger på pensum, men de er tyndt besatte på dette emne. God sommer!

Spørgsmål til følgere/medlemmer af @dkmarxsoc.bsky.social: Jeg skal undervise i videnskabsteori til næste år. Hvad bruger I andre som introduktion til marxistisk teori (eller endog marxistisk videnskabsteori)? 3.-4. semester, ikke filosofi-studerende! Helst dansk-sproget, alternativt engelsk.

I would love to hear your thoughts! It's an early draft and very much work in progress.

I conclude that the two programs are not just highly compatible. Together, they hold the potential of transforming Cognitive Ecology, the cognitive science of embodied organism-environment systems. osf.io/preprints/ps...

How does Radical Embodied Cognitive Science relate to Marxism?

In a recent preprint, I discuss this question at length, drawing on work by @tonychemero.bsky.social, @sorenmau.bsky.social, @edbaggs.bsky.social and many others.
