Wonder how you lose your democracy? Proactively giving legitimacy to peddlers of disinformation is definitely near the top of the list.

This might be the most damning commentary on Harry Potter’s basic premise I’ve ever seen - and this week that is saying something! Haha

#OpEd Inna Bondarenko takes you inside Russia's famous school for diplomats, where Moscow's negotiators of the future are taught to break the rules of international relations while appearing to play by the book. themoscowtimes.com/2025/04/1…

I Trained With Russian Diplomats. I Can Tell You How They Work

Opinion | Last week, while Russian missiles rained down on Ukrainian cities, the Kremlin’s special envoy Kirill Dmitriev landed in Washington with an offer of economic cooperation.

I am so thrilled to be part of this team and looking forward to the 3MT proposals. The 3 Minute Thesis is a great opportunity to learn how to showcase the heart of your research to the general public. (Also, it really helps with family dinners! ) #cpsa_acsp25 #3MT

Not everyone sees justice the same way. But for a culpable state, not listening to the victims and their families is probably not the best start to reconciliation. I wrote this article following the passing of the new “Troubles” Act in the UK. theconversation.com/new-law-…

New law sidesteps British culpability in Northern Ireland’s Troubles

Opponents of the U.K. government’s Northern Ireland Troubles Act argue it violates the Good Friday Agreement by denying victims their right to justice.

With numerous mis and dis-information accounts and a vast number of 'users' aiming to solely amplify negativity, the lack of considered and moderated news today is felt ever more strongly. Peace processes require good faith and even better information. Damaging to peace indeed.
James Ker-Lindsay@JamesKerLindsay29 Oct 2023
One of the worst aspects of the social media era is how it rewards extreme partisanship. This has done so much harm to peace processes. Efforts to find sensible solutions are pushed aside as people engage in rejectionism to outbid each other for their chosen audience’s adulation.
