My review of Marcelo Hoffmann's "Foucault in Brazil" out now in HAHR21 Just how important was Foucault’s experience of the Brazilian dictatorship—its torture and discipline—for the development of his ideas that would culminate in Discipline and Punish? read.dukeupress.edu/hahr/article-a…

Doodzonde en onacceptabel dat het onderwijsprotest morgen niet door kan gaan door dreiging van geweld. Het kabinet wil de grootste bezuiniging op onderwijs ooit doorvoeren. Studenten en docenten verdienen het om daarover gehoord te worden!

My review of Cibele Barbosa's for Brésil(s). Sciences humaines et sociales. journals.openedition.org/bresils/17966 Cibele's book, centered on Gilberto Freyre, is one of many exciting new works that are unveiling just how influential Latin American thinkers were for European social science.

So proud of you, Barbara Weinstein Barbara Weinstein and American Historical Association. So important that historians' voices are being heard opposing the destruction of education and knowledge in Gaza. democracynow.org/2025/1/6/aha_s…

New year, new review! Rather than conflate corporatism with fascism, an ideology that shared some of corporatism’s features, A Third Path treats corporatist doctrine on its own terms. The book is largely historicist but also surprisingly timely. cambridge.org/core/journals/…
