Germany's Interior Ministry has issued a “Betätigungsverbot” against me, a ban on any political activity. Not just a ban on visiting Germany but also from participation via Zoom. Here is the speech whose publication caused this ban. Judge for yourselves! yanisvaroufakis.eu/2024/04/1…

20 years ago this month I started working at the newly formed @NUBS_ICCSR at @UniofNottingham. It was a life-changing moment and those 5 years were the most exciting of my career. Last week we celebrated the centre in style with the ICCSR 20 year birthday symposium.

For starkly revealing the unbearable absurdity of US discourse over the past 3 months -- and the people who leading it -- I never imagined anything could surpass this surreal and dizzying Fox moment with Condoleezza Rice. Yet George Bush blew past it:

This captures the absurdity and deceit of our current discourse so completely and fully that it's hard to believe it actually happened. It's so rare for perfection this pure to materialize. The universe is speaking loudly here. Appreciate what it just provided:

How is it possible that the scientific committee at @CharteredABS responsible for "general management, ethics, gender, and social responsibility" does not have a single expert on ethics or CSR? They are all fine scholars, but not specialists publishing in ethics/CSR journals.

New #ABS #AJG list for management. Only significant change is that @AOMConnect AOM Annals is now 4* and AOM Discoveries enter in category 3. Already obsolete and not of any use, due to the #DORA principles, though?

A long time ago, @dirkmatten and I co-edited a special issue of @Beer_Wiley on stakeholder democracy with contributions from different disciplinary perspectives. I think it still holds up well today. I'm sure these old papers would love a little attention: bit.ly/3umBLPJ

What is the future of #CSR research post-COVID-19? @dirkmatten and I argue in @JMS_Journal that we should put the nail in the coffin of traditional CSR research and open up new pathways. bit.ly/36yPNo1

Great dystopian piece from ⁦@NaomiAKlein⁩: “It has taken some time to gel, but something resembling a coherent pandemic shock doctrine is beginning to emerge. Call it the Screen New Deal.” How big tech plans to profit from the pandemic. theguardian.com/news/2020/ma…
