Very happy that my first article, '"They are not muslims. They are monsters": the accidental takfirism of British political elites', has been published in Critical Studies on Terrorism. Thanks to @DrJackHolland and @GordonClubb for their advice and to the editor, @LeeJarvisPols.

I've started a substack with theological reflections on global politics. I'll be writing on the themes of my new book Security After Christendom. I begin with two short essays placing the US elections in historical & theological contexts.

What a panel! Had such a fun time presenting at day one of #ISA2024, it's so encouraging to see a full room of scholars interested in women's participation in political violence, a huge thank you to @HarrySwinhoe for pulling together a brilliant session @isanet – at Union Square, San Francisco
#SOC2092 #SOC3092 This is a significant intervention in the discussion we had in the first week about defining terrorism and critiques of the concept altogether. Also potentially of interest to #POL3000
“Terrorism” is a harmful, colonial, racialised category which cannot be redeemed. So what’s the solution? Nothing short of abolition, as I argue in this article with Critical Studies on Terrorism! Read it here👇

Gente, I am thrilled to finally share with you a piece of my PhD. In this article, you will find one of the few cases where refugees are met with seemingly 'welcoming' and open doors. Desecuritisation is possible but fragile. Download the article to find out more:

#SOC2092 #SOC3092 A thread and article on long range stand off terrorism relevant to our future discussions on the role of new technologies but also to the debates around definition as it highlights the potentially blurred boundaries between terrorism and other forms of violence.
New CTC Sentinel cover article - “Going the Distance: The Emergence of Long-Range Stand-Off Terrorism” - that I put together released today.
It is part of a new Sentinel “On The Horizon” series we have launched.
