🎧💻 Out now Scam Factories takes you inside Southeast Asia’s brutal scam compounds. In our podcast series (🔎 search for The Conversation Weekly) and online we meet the people lured into the industry, reveal how they become trapped and trafficked and track their desparate attempts to escape. We track the organised crime groups and corrupt politicians linked to the operations and chart the industry’s explosive growth: hundreds of thousands of people are being forced to scam. And we try to answer the question, are they victims or criminals, or can they be both? 💬 Read the interactive article and listen to the podcast: scam-factories-life-inside.netlify.app

The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand@ConversationEDU

@EmmaShortis' take on the Biden-Trump debate: a disaster for Biden and his ability to frame the election as an existential crisis for American democracy. @TheAusInstitute @ConversationEDU
The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand@ConversationEDU

The pressure on Joe Biden's candidacy will now be immense writes US politics expert @EmmaShortis, @RMIT. And whether he can turn it around is much less clear now than it was before the debate. #debate #Biden #Trump #Echobox=1719555728" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theconversation.com/muddled-answer…

The continued pursuit of Julian Assange was becoming both untenable for the Biden administration and damaging to US standing in the world, writes @EmmaShortis @TheAusInstitute @ConversationEDU
The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand@ConversationEDU

The ordeal should prompt deep reflection on the values that underpin Australia’s relationship with its most important security ally, the US writes @EmmaShortis (@rmit). #Echobox=1719296342" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theconversation.com/with-pressure-…

Will terrorists target the Paris Olympics? There's no easy answer, but several factors are key – two terrorism experts at Victoria University explain. @ConversationEDU @Andrew_Zammit @Ramon_Spaaij @victoriauninews
The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand@ConversationEDU

While there has been a surge of terror plots in Europe in recent months, an attack on the Olympics would require a group to have the intent, capability and opportunity, write @Andrew_Zammit + @Ramon_Spaaij (@victoriauninews). #Echobox=1718751704-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theconversation.com/will-the-paris…

The UK of 2024 is very different than 1997. Back then, Britons had hope for the future. Today, many are disaffected and cynical, hoping things won’t continue to get worse, writes @Liamj47 (@unimelb). #Echobox=1718832301-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theconversation.com/tony-blair-sol…

Why was the US so angry about possible ICC arrest warrants for Israeli leaders this week, but supported them against Putin last year? A former ICC official says it has a long history of supporting the court only when it suits US interests. @UniMelb @ConversationEDU
The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand@ConversationEDU

The US initially supported the court's creation but has had ambivalent feelings towards it ever since then. A @UniMelb expert explains the history. #Echobox=1716441238" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theconversation.com/us-hostility-t…
