Passing time, waiting, counting minutes. One thing I felt friends and colleagues abroad didn’t fully get was that as long as there were hostages in Gaza, October 7th was not in the past. Every single day, every single act were overshadowed by the guilt of the abandonment of our brothers and sister.

Many thanks to the @ccds-aup.bsky.social for a fantastic conference on “Renewing the Social Contract”, and for the opportunity to present my paper titled: “Is solidarity necessary for democracy? (and if so, what should constitutional law do about it?)”, part of my ongoing project on solidarity
