Las transferencias nominativas que realiza el Gobierno regional no dan ni para cubrir nóminas. La UCM recibió en 2009 418€ millones por el capítulo IV; en 2024 403 millones. 15 millones menos, sin contar siquiera el aumento del coste de la vida. eldiario.es/sociedad/unive…

@cenkarslan @Sedacolakogluu Wow, congrats and looking forward to reading it!

Thrilled to share some exciting news! Our collaborative paper, "Rebuilding Security: Artificial Intelligence, Discourse, and the Politics of Counter-Terrorism" with Seda Çolakoğlu (@Sedacolakogluu) , has been accepted to the prestigious 9th International Conference on Terrorism and Security, themed around "Rearmament in the World"! In this work, inspired by @AliceCMartini (2025) agenda in Critical Terrorism Studies (CTS), we dive deep into how AI isn't just a neutral tech tool, it's a discursive construct embedded in power relations, security hierarchies, and ideological representations. We explore AI's dual framing as both a threat (AI-enabled terrorism) and a solution (AI-based counter-terrorism), and how this perpetuates state-centric, militarized paradigms while invisibilizing certain social groups. Key question at the heart: How does AI's construction in security discourses produce political legitimacies and epistemological limits? Drawing on STS, critical security approaches, and postcolonial critiques, we unpack the potential of AI-driven security to deepen inequalities, algorithmic governance, data colonialism, and the digital re-bordering of security. Finally, we call for reframing AI's political impacts as a societal construct within CTS, paving the way for fresh research avenues.

We are also hosting a roundtable on teaching terrorism and counterterrorism with @AliceCMartini @louisekpears @_julianschmid @RaquelBPSilva and @carl_al_ajnabee @MYBISA #BISA2025

¿A alguien le parece medio normal que este sea el tema de la graduación de nuestra escuela infantil? ¡Niñ@s de 2-3 años! ¡Adultocéntrismo, sexualización, roles de género de los más rancios y consumismo en la escuela pública!
