Our article on ontological security, civil war, and narrative is out at @CoCo_journal .
Prof. @aysebetulcelik and me argue that groups seek TRUTH to maintain their ontological security by narrating themselves thickly.

Historical Social Science
These books provide two accounts of how to do historical social science. Kreuzer is more qualitative in orientation, Wawro & Katznelson are more quantitative
Yet they both press us to think more rigorously about how to combine history & social science
For those who are interested in causality and OS
🥳Excited to share our latest article in Turkish Studies:

Happily, our article, Meltem Müftüler-Baç and I, is now out in International Migration (@IntMig_Journal).
Towards a Functional Place: The article argues that "cities emigrate, not individuals." We build on this metaphore to delve into refugee paradoxes.
onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
What does that mean? Instead of imagining - while drafting solutions and policies - an individual emigrating, imagine a city/town/neighborhood emigrating. What will happen? This speculative conceptualization leads us to a different paradigm.
I will participate in this flash conference, on inlcusive governance in Syria after the overthrow of the Assad Regime.
Wednesday at 6:00 pm, Turkish time.
For attending and registratoin:
Very Important: Massive fake news, information, videos, on Syria are sweeping social media and even media outlets. NEVER believe what you read or see before verifying with two different and reputable media outlets.

🎉The special issue, Peace in Plural: Towards Decolonial & Feminist Approaches to Peace, that @SladjaLazic & I co-edited, is now fully out in @JISBjournal! It feels surreal to share this many-years-in-the-making product of comraderie, love, and grief tandfonline.com/toc/risb20/1… 🧵

New article out on violence and #migration in @GHJournal, find it here: rdcu.be/d1gTT
Reporting of violence victimization should never lead to immigration enforcement. Everyone deserves to be free from violence. @ManzurHannah @BunceAnnie, Natalia Lewis @VISION_UKPRP
