New article from Shahar Hameiri & me in EJIR (European Journal of International Relations): Why the West's Alternative to Chinese Infrastructure Financing is Failing. TL;DR version: the West relies on mobilising private finance, which doesn't work!

Last year China's turned 10. The West is trying to compete with it. Shahar Hameiri and Lee Jones argue, that the West is failing because it relies onĀ  'escorting' private capital into infrastructure - an approach that has already failed at home.

Grateful to RUSI stepping in & mainstreaming the logical view which has somehow been taboo for 4 years.

Never again.

This is straightforward political censorship by Birmingham University. But however could management have gotten the idea that academics are not professional enough to ensure an inclusive, 'safe and objective space' without external intervention and oversight? šŸ¤”

The only thing this show sparked was my annoyance. Easily the worst Lear I've ever seen in my life. God knows what Kenneth Branagh was thinking. Some moments verged on panto. Audience members laughing at death scenes. Dire.

Delighted that School of Politics & IR at Queen Mary will continue to offer our Parliamentary Studies module in formal collaboration with UK Parliament.

Parliamentary Studies is one of our most popular modules, with over 100 students now taking it each year.

Can anyone recommend a good book, written in relatively easy/ accessible French or Spanish, on a topic broadly about cuisine or culture?
