Leaving #Seoul after an intense week!

The #ICLA2025 Congress was a blast. I especially enjoyed our "Digital Comparative Literature" sessions; great discussions! And the round table on responsible use of generative LLMs turned out really great as well, with a rather large audience.

The only less-than-great thing was that, unsurprisingly, I think I was basically the only one posting about the event here, with @icla_dcl / @rebsim. 😞

It is a pleasure to see these old Victorian infographic maps as teaching aids on water bottles and other tchotchkes, I have always been fascinated by them and their place in geologic, geographic, cartographic history…

“Nowadays, detailed maps of any corner of the Earth are available for everyone. Detailed information about any geographical object on our planet can be got in just a few seconds. But two centuries ago, life was radically different. That’s why comparative infographic maps were viral in the 19th century, which allowed people to get information about the main geographical objects of our planet.”

Currently PI of #ERC project on political endurance.

#introduction part 3,

As mentioned, I mainly study #internationalrelations mainly from a #comparative perspective. That said, right wing violent extremism is a growing problem across the West and developing world. As a result, it's become a focus of mine and usually features in at least one of my papers every semester. #EthnicNationalism is probably going to be my focus for a masters degree.
My own politics are a mix of #marxism. I'm reading a lot of #gramsci and #foucault and #zizek atm.
