Today is the Day of Truth & Justice in #Argentina. A day honoring the 30,000 victims of the country's brutal dictatorship. But president Milei (like Bolsonaro in #Brazil) is trying to rewrite history to defend the dictatorship & torturers Facundo Iglesia theguardian.com/world/2024/mar…

Ever since I watched The Settlers a couple of months ago (now available on MUBI) I started reading about the Selk’nam genocide. I just found this amazing paper that links the genocide to the process of state-building in Chile. Fascinating read. tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10.10…

Some professional news: Soon I'll be joining ISDC Berlin as a postdoctoral research fellow! Sad to leave Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, but excited about this new professional stage and to continue working on conflict and development. Now, to finish/submit my doctoral dissertation 😅.

Coming back to Berlin after spending the last 10 days in Congo to kick-off the fieldwork for a joint project with UNHCR. Great people and amazing food. We got to travel all the way up to Bétou, a host city for refugees from CAR and DRC. We also tried the local beer 👌
