Attac trauert um Neli (Cornelia) Staritz.

Cornelia Staritz ist nach langer Krankheit viel zu früh von uns gegangen. Sie war eine der ersten Vorständinnen von Attac und hat Attac zentral mitgestaltet und geprägt.

Wir werden sie sehr vermissen: www.attac.at/news/details...

Really happy to see our article in JPE! In it, we discuss the 'non-economy of anticipation', a double vision in the construction phase of infrastructure, where future promises collide with the actual realities of implementation. We show how this leads to apathy and infrastructural violence.

Hochrelevante Recherche über einen parteiinternen Rechtsruck der CDU. Der Ruck ist unter anderem unterstützt durch Susanne Schröter, die bekannt für rechtes Irrlichtern und ihre pauschale Islamkritik ist und sich nun ausdrücklich für eine Minderheitsregierung einsetzt. Unheimlich...

Claim-making in hydrosocial spaces. We have a new article in Area discussing the temporality of displacement!

Using the heuristic of 'time knots', we discuss in the article how 'legal forum shopping' is being used by government institutions to make claims on dam reservoirs and adjacent lands. 1/2

🚨Paper alert🚨: Friendshoring is a new strategy for the spatial organisation of production networks. Amid the polycrisis, states & lead firms engage closely along new de-risking imperatives. We present two case studies (Namibia/green hydrogen & Tanzania/soy bean).

Our article in Futures is finally out! It took some time, but it was a lot quicker than the dam project we researched - one that was supposed to be fast-tracked.
So, why being sassy about the promise of the dam being fast-tracked? Because it matters:

Ok, hier kommt der Thread zum Musk/Weidel Space drüben auf der Höllenseite. Es beginnt mit brutal nerviger Telefonschleifen Musik. Mehr in Kürze (leider).

A few people are in line for a vending machine which is installed in the side of an oil barrel surrounded by dozens of oil barrels. The title says "Our food has a hidden ingredient. 15% of global fossil fuel use is down to food systems." The logo for the podcast Fuel to Fork is in the corner of the image.

If your #NewYearsResolution is to listen to more podcasts, we've got you covered! 🎧

#FueltoFork tackles the big questions around the role that fossil fuels play in our food system.

NEW PAPER: The 2022 fossil fuel price jumps caused an oil and gas profit explosion. We show the US reaped the largest profit increase (USD 275bn) of any country. Big Oil claims this benefits the American people. In fact, 51% went to the richest 1%, only 1% to the bottom 50%. A 🧵

It’s Time to Rethink America’s Corn System As a crop, corn is highly productive, flexible and successful. As a system, the same is not true.
