This beauty turns 2 years old today. And given the global rise of tech bros culture everywhere, I honestly think its story and lessons are as relevant and timely as ever...
Qué noticia tan preciosa. Se impone como un mantra la idea de que el futuro de la economía pasa por una carrera desenfrenada hacia las tecnologías profundas, pero el futuro del planeta pasa por reinventar los ciclos metabólicos de la tierra
Our article on the logics, logistics and locations of democratic participation in the digital age is this year's most read article in Economy and Society
A reminder to folks gearing up for a new school year that if you're into urban commons, ecosocial transitions, captivating counterurbanisms, grassroots infrastructures or digital activism, the pages of Free Culture and the City are always welcoming and rewarding! 😊

Delighted to see this finally out: on how community responses in Madrid "collectively unpredicted" their epidemiological fate during the pandemic. A story not about expert factuals vs. community counterfactuals, but about the urban liveliness of otherwisefactuals.
Cultural Anthropology has been at the forefront of open access and digital publishing in anthropology for over a decade. Scholarly-run. Self-published. No paywalls. No APCs. Now we need your help. Check the video. Contact your librarians. Spread the word.
Cultural Anthropology's latest issue is now out! Amazing articles on rumors-as-theory, peasant revolutionary movements, the importance of strategic silence in reconciliation, “bureaucraft”, & the absent presence of oil in post-imperial collapse

Long-awaited: the Spanish translation of Partial Connections is out soon with Sans Soleil Ediciones. I wrote the epilogue, now also available in English via Ankulegi. A playful rereading of partial connections as integral disconnections: https://ankulegi.hypotheses.org/13579
The litmus test of political anthropology (with dare I say predictable results among filthy rich universities?)
