Opinion | Israel Cannot Go On Winning Like This
Important commentary from my @crisisgroup.org colleague @mairavz.bsky.social.
I will add that American domestic politics are slowly shifting on this relationship.

Book Review — The Protest Years: The Official History of ASIO: 1963-1975
A lesson in organisational and stakeholder dynamics
My review of the second volume of the official history of ASIO.
As a student of organisational governance, I love how this book is as much an organisational history as an operational one, especially when looking at ASIO under the Whitlam Government.

Badenoch: Curb students taking "rip-off" degrees such as English. The performing arts, sociology and anthropology are among the subjects the Conservatives would like to cut
This makes me so angry. These people view all life as training for lifelong servitude/work. There's no room for interest, enjoyment, and culture in their bleak vision of education. At least she'll never be in power to see it through. Though Reform are probably worse.

So this is what devolved research funding looks like
A couple of recent policy announcements show how the government is attempting to navigate the niceties of regional funding distribution
'obliging different areas to bid against one another and then leaving the ultimate say-so down to Whitehall has proven hugely misguided in all sorts of different levelling-up-adjacent funding opportunities in recent years.'
