The Faculty of Humanities and Social Science @QMUL has announced a Voluntary Severance Scheme.

Thanks to the Law and History Research Group for organising this. Looking forward!

Excellent finale to a packed term! @taushif was on fine form on Indian political thought, invisible subjects and the Khojas at the legendary seminar that is the Monday seminar.

Endlich Zeit ausgiebig in meinem Belegexemplar der #ZIG zu schmökern:
Rainald Goetz, Bénédicte Savoy, Sigrid Boysen - so spannend war das Kleingedruckte noch nie.
Von mir ist auch was dabei, über die provinzialrechtliche Vielfalt im angeblichen preußischen Ordnungsstaat.
