Is Europe's Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) a neoliberal project? In this new article in @conteurohistory.bsky.social, I examine this (hotly) debated question.

Excellent advice as ever from this series from @catherinedevries.bsky.social ⤵️
I never ran a 'hidden CV' but always thought, obviously with hindsight because on the spot it just hurts, that rejections had always been very beneficial to me. Hard to hear at the time. But worth anticipating.

Every academic career is built on rejection, but we don’t show it.

CVs list publications, grants & awards, not rejected manuscripts, unfunded proposals, or failures.

But those invisible rejections shape us more than our successes ever do.

Broad question, I'm not sure where to start... have a look at Laurent Warlouzet's work, Eric Monnet, my own Europe Made of Money. Also depends what you're looking for (economic, political, intellectual histories)

Nope. This is not on.
Why is there always money for extremely expensive oversurveilance? Which, to boot has a long trackrecord of being *successfully* challenged by staff, so a wasted investment nobody should have signed off on.

This year's Graduate Conference in the History of European Integration closed last week. We discussed the environment, institutional change or the EEC's external relations, among many other themes. Here's a short report on it. Looking forward to next year's edition!

The reckless lack of care at what should be the most secure site in Britain is utterly jaw dropping. Never mind diplomatic talk of “suboptimal” plans & “shortfalls in asset management” - this is a story of unforgivable negligence & cover-up - just shameful
