Global Governance by Manual. I analyse this ubiquitous yet undertheorised technology of global governance, demonstrating its contribution to informal standardisation in the field of #transitional #justice through world making, ordering. doi.org/10.1093/isq/sq…

@NC_Renic He is testing the limits of nationally bounded representative democracy in a world of global powers with massive reach and WMD. Millions of Iranians, Palestinians, etc. pay the price for S Carolina voters empowering him.

The challenge of global governance is not local ownership but authorship, suspended in tension between global goals and national self-definition. 'Global Governance by Manual: The Transitional Justice Toolkit and the Standardization of a Field' academic.oup.com/isq/article-ab…

The percentage of child dead in the Ukrainian conflict is 0.3%. Zero point three per cent. The percentage of child dead in the Gaza conflict is 37.7%. Thirty seven point seven per cent. In a single statistic, there you have the difference between a war and a genocide.

Multilateralism has never been an inspiring word. It is procedural, abstract, and emotionally thin. No one rallies under its banner, and no leader wins popularity by defending it. Yet for Africa, multilateralism has never been a luxury of orderly times or a matter of institutional aesthetics. It has been, repeatedly and painfully, a strategy of survival. amaniafrica-et.org/africasmultila…

@MattPolProf Completely! There was a willingness to admit that African governments were instrumentalist and not genuine but also insistence that Western ditto were all for level playing fields and equality before the law.

I appreciated the candor of this speech. But its telling Carney has basically just acknowledged facts about the international legal order that left wing and critical scholars have been pointing out for decades. Largely to apoplectic anger from true believers...

Suppressed News.@SuppressedNws1

⚡️🇨🇦JUST IN: Canada’s PM Mark Carney at WEF: "We knew that the story about the rules-based order was partially false... We knew that international law applied with varying rigour depending on the identity of the accused and the victim. This fiction was useful [because of the goods provided by American hegemony]... So we placed the sign in the window. We participated in the rituals. And we largely avoided calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality. This bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... You cannot live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the source of your subordination."

The @NobelPrize Committee confused peace and democracy. They are often linked, but they are not identical. You can war to pursue democratisation, but not to pursue peace. You can have authoritarian peace, but not authoritarian democracy.

Very happy to attend the Basel Peace Forum. Questions of world order loom large here too and speakers pursue issues of mediation in the wider (un)rule of law context.

@larsloekke Please listen to M Carney's speech again. Do we have or get too many of Havel's metaphorical signs in the window?

The day is ending on a better note than it began. We welcome that POTUS has ruled out to take Greenland by force and paused the trade war. Now, let’s sit down and find out how we can address the American security concerns in the Arctic while respecting the red lines of the KoD.

Peace processes never look pretty, always look messy. And when you wish for one side's victory, the compromise always feels like an affront, a violation. They only make sense if you focus on their purpose, ending war. That goal may even not feel higher, to those who are safe...

As transitional justice is a global standard f addressing past & ongoing harms, it matters what gets included as an appropriate & relevant object of redress. New article: "Calling for Inclusion": Negotiating Boundaries in the Transitional Justice Script. muse.jhu.edu/article/965926

"The BBC World Service has compiled material on over 160 cases where children have been shot in Gaza, and found that in 95 cases the child was shot in the head or the chest. In most of these cases the victim was under 12 years old"
