"The transatlantic slave trade ... disrupted societies, extracted human and economic value on an unprecedented scale, and left enduring legacies that continue to influence patterns of development, opportunity and vulnerability across the world. Recognising this history fully is essential."

And what, for example, are the postcolonial scholars there meant to do now

QM_UCU@qmucu.bsky.social · 5mo ago

The cuts. They cuts are never-ending. And they're cutting away what it means to be a university.

It’s the last week to see Emergency Exits at the Imperial War Museum, which explores decolonisation in Kenya, Cyprus and Malaya and which I was lucky enough to consult on as a part of a team of imperial historians. Go and see it if you can — it’s really great!

At the end of the Second World War, a wave of independence movements swept the British Empire. Emergency Exits focuses on three often overlooked independence movements. These were brutal conflicts bet...

God what a travesty. Such a terrible waste. Ridiculous policy of reassessing refugees. Just let people live in Britain!

Alasdair Mackenzie@alasdairmackenzie.bsky.social · 5mo ago

This stinks at every level. What refugees desperately need after their claims are accepted is the stability to rebuild their lives. This change will cause immeasurable stress and anxiety to some of the most vulnerable people in the country

This is a basic and crucial point for any discussion of LLMs’ use in teaching research or writing. Whether it can ape us, fool us, or get facts right or wrong is, in the end, irrelevant. The LLM is not the thinker we are trying to encourage; the LLM is not the writer that we are trying to improve.

Anthony Moser@anthonymoser.com · 5mo ago

i think enthusiastic LLM use is mostly a stack of cognitive biases, unacknowledged plagiarism, and unmet needs in a trenchcoat but also my main objections aren't about them being bad at tasks so i don't care if you think they've gotten better at it

a must attend for any ECRs who work on global history (broadly conceived). My first article was published with JGH & I had fantastic editorial support to guide me through the process - far from a guarantee in academic publishing sadly. They are setting the standard so make the most of this session!

Happy to see the cover for this terrific edited volume — congratulations Margot and Brian (and thanks for all of the work you’ve put in!!)

After years of calls, events, and track changes, Brian Drohan and I are excited to announce the publication of our edited volume, Military Humanitarianism: Aid Operations and Armed Forces, with @cornellupress.bsky.social in July 2026! www.cornellpress.cornell.edu/book/9781501...

this is GLOULISH

Claire E. Aubin@ceaubin.com · 5mo ago

I have seen a lot of cursed stuff in my time in academia but this is among the *most* cursed. Grammarly is generating miniature LLMs based on academic work so that users can have their writing ‘reviewed’ by experts like David Abulafia, who died less than two months ago.

So excited to see this out (soon) - @drmargottudor.bsky.social and @briandrohan.bsky.social did such an amazing job!!!
