Spatialised industrial strategies usually aim to bring about 'balanced regional growth'. My new paper in JAC looks at how different combinations of such strategies play out in agrarian peripheries. Open access, here: doi.org/10.1111/joac.7…

more cross-pollination between social reproduction and agrarian studies means we see how a global geography of accumulation is reproducing agrarian lifeworlds. Always great to talk to @FeministOnMarx and @SaraStevano Next up, more on SR with Shirin Rai: eventbrite.co.uk/e/book-talk-de…

Jamhoor is stellar in every possible way. It's progressive in its writing for sure, but also in how it operates...how the collective comes together to platform voices and visions from South Asia. read, share, and support
Jamhoor@jamhoormedia

Authoritarianism is rising. War is raging. The planet is burning. South Asia is at the center of it all—but mainstream media is failing us. Jamhoor offers what they won’t: critical insight, progressive internationalism, radical horizons. Support a media for the people. Support Jamhoor. Like. Repost. Donate. patreon.com/cw/jamhoor

The CEO of The Hindu Group @Lvnavaneeth says at the #AISummit that his job is to ensure that he is "always in a position to prioritise long-term trust over short-term efficiency and productivity." This is exactly how media should approach AI.

to pundits shouting MMT, I have news - MMT is first a description of central bank-government monetary mechanics. there are layers of theory/normative advice, but to shout at @ZackPolanski for outlining mechanics is like shouting at doctors for saying heart circulates blood
Daniela Gabor@DanielaGabor

well @ZackPolanski is correct - Bank of England is a public institution. what it does with government debt it holds is a POLITICAL choice. it can choose to hold gilts, to sell them, to buy more. these decisions are informed by economic theories that are profoundly ideological.

a clear explanation of what the drive against 'extreme poverty' and its achievements are, and what it doesn't claim to be. Most importantly Kerala's drive shows an expansionary approach to benefits rather than narrow targeting
R. Ramakumar@ramakumarr

On 1 Nov 2025, Kerala declared an end to "extreme poverty" in the State. While some have praised it, others have raised questions. In this piece in @thenewsminute, I try to say that most questions arise from the lack of an understanding of the initiative. thenewsminute.com/kerala/poorly-…

"We cannot pretend to stand against the far right while referring to its politics as “legitimate concerns”." I wrote this short piece two years ago and it's got a lot worse with that fascist-enabling Labour government theconversation.com/look-to-the-ma…

There is a nation-wide labour strike in India today. Over 250 million workers have joined in. This is because *income* inequality in India has been growing for decades. Median wages for the top 10% is 13 times higher than that of the bottom 10%

Today is the day. After weeks of the various distractions & disturbances that make up academic life, & the worry over a paper that's not moving forward, I have an entire day to write. And here I am, procrastinating, unable to write. Brilliant. Thanks brain.
