Journalister: Jag är den enda advokat i Sverige som jobbat omfattande med nya och gamla könstillhörighetslagen. Kontakta mig gärna om ni har frågor innan ni skriver/pratar om den - just nu florerar stora mängder felaktigheter.

Intresserad av vad en kritik av juridik/rätten Måste börja med? På med lurarna, in i julstöket o lyssna på detta kanonavsnitt.

Carl Wilén, alltigenom ödmjuk person och djup tänkare, med tydlig och bra intro till den ”heta” Pasjukanis

Tillsammans med Carl Wilén, sociolog & postdoktor vid Lunds universitet, så försöker vi förstå & använda den sovjetiska rättsteoretikern Jevgenij Pasjukanis. Om marxistisk rättslära, juridikens relation till klasskampen & varför en skiss från 1924 plötsligt utgör grund för heta debatter igen.

I've written a short piece on international law, fetishism, and ideology - now out on Legal Form. I suggest that international law is an ideological fetishism of international relations.

Ny bok ute! I ”samtida Marxistisk teori” introduceras 37 (!) samtida marxister av 42 (!) skribenter. Själv har jag skrivit om David Harvey.

This was a great chat I think. Alex on his usual excellent form and @rafeefz.bsky.social and Adam both brilliant as ever.

This is our first pod about the @versobooks.bsky.social pamphlet and it's good to start out with some of the best.

Den svenska regeringen är emot att denna nödhjälp når svältande barn i Gaza via UNRWA - och anser alltså att nuvarande upplägg där civila palestinier mördas när de försöker få mat är mer effektivt.

Den amerikanska vänsterns stora wokekrig Det pågår i skrivande stund en uppslitande debatt inom amerikansk vänster om rasism, klass och politisk strategi. I debattens epicentrum finner vi ett kontroversiellt ord, begreppet “woke”, och en …

En riktig pangtext om den amerikanska sk wokedebatten som ställer den viktiga frågan om hur kraften hos en social rörelse kan behållas över tid:

New publication in Industrial Law Journal 🎉

The early EU once imagined a different kind of environmental policy. It was rooted in social democracy, not neoliberal logic.

It's open access so you can give it a read at the link below 👇

Not "preemptive."

Illegal.

There is no evidence of an actual or imminent armed attack by Iran.

This is a blatant violation of the UN Charter.

It has no legal basis in the right of self-defense.

Now we wait to see how many civilians will die because of this insanity.

Kritik mot svensk Gaza-hantering: ”Djupt problematiskt” - Nyheter (Ekot) I över tio veckor har Israel blockerat allt humanitärt bistånd från att komma in i Gaza och nu larmar FN-stödda IPC att hela Gazaremsans befolkning står ...

Genom att hänvisa till internationell domstol, frånhänder sig Sverige ansvaret för det som pågår i Gaza. Folkrätten är ett decentraliserat system där staterna måste agera när folkrättsbrott begås.

4/4 This also means that @sorenmau.bsky.social and I are looking for a place to live near Gothenburg from September 1, 2025. We’re dreaming about renting an old wooden farmhouse in the forest with space to read, think, write and live. Any heads up are highly appreciated ❤️

Här har Sverige dock en hel del gemensamt med Turkiet. Om Joakim Medin i stället var en kurdisk exiljournalist som publicerat exakt samma saker hade han med hemligt underlag blivit klassad som ett säkerhetshot av Säpo, tagen i förvar och utvisad ur landet

As US law-makers threaten to invade the Hague and promise to crush Canada's economy to penalise it for saying it would abide by ICC arrest warrants, this is a good time to recall that the US's 'rules-based international order' is not 'international law'. 1/5

I was invited to deliver this year's Kogon Lecture at TU Darmstadt but I was canceled and called antisemitic due to my statements on the genocide in Gaza.

Now I made it! The starter pack you've been looking for: Critical legal scholars, broadly understood - Marxist, LPE, postcolonial, TWAIL, feminist, queer approaches, etc., to law. I'll keep adding names, so feel free to tell me if you (or others) should be there (or shouldn't).
