We have declared a dispute with @SOAS, following their proposals to cut classes that support international students. 34 staff face a fire and rehire process and are at risk of redundancy ucu.org.uk/article/13484/…

This is outrageous. Hope to see many comrades at the Hammersmith Police Station at 17:00. Solidarity and support for our SOAS students!
I’m sorry to announce that our event today will not be moving forward, as our chair, a SOAS student, was raided and arrested at 7 am for giving a speech at the SOAS Palestine protest.
I strongly ask everyone to show solidarity & help spread the word.

We wrote a letter in response to Alan Beattie's @FT piece calling for the retirement of the term 'Global South'. We think that it'd be a mistake: it would obscure persistent South-North divides.

Very happy to be International Economic Association's @IEA_economics featured economist for the month October 2023.

In this profile, I reflect on why I do economics, relevance of my work, and how to think about the issue of diversity in the discipline.
