Privileged to spend another year in the company of our brilliant Grad Student Associates
@weatherheadcenter.bsky.social, many of them international students

What a conference! Something that started in our minds as a ‘little workshop’ turned into this amazing, intense display of so many fantastic projects & ways of thinking about internationalism

What a delight to have this path-breaking book in hand.

If you haven't read it yet, do.

What is behind the explosion in talk about decolonisation? | Aeon Essays There’s more talk of decolonisation than ever, while true independence for former colonies has faded from view. Why?

I wrote an essay on decolonization talk for Aeon Magazine, sparked in part by the seemingly odd image search results for 'decolonization' when making posters for Ohio State's International History Seminar last year. @mershoncenter.bsky.social @osuhistory.bsky.social

My state of waiting for this book is now over! Congratulations @lydiawalker.bsky.social

An exciting delivery from Alvita Akiboh. I look forward to reading and sharing with my students

This Vol - and the workshop that built it - was an absolute pleasure to participate in. It also signals the exciting directions CUP's Global and Int'l Hist series is taking, curating transnatl scholarship from a wide array of scholars (background, career stage, geographic location).

It's been out for a few months now.. but I'm new to Bluesky
