Such a hot flyer I don’t know who designed it 💅 (It looked horrible before my co-organizers Lauren Clingan, @miradvale @ShelleyXuewen made their suggestions) In any case, join us at the JTS for what has always been a fun and rewarding experience!

Weak autocracies are far more common than strong autocracies. They are also often far more dangerous and damaging than strong autocracies. Never take hope from an autocrat’s weakness. Instead, prepare for the worst. A 🧵 based on 2 of my books: (1/N)

I've read nothing like this before—a painfully honest piece about the cruelty and patriarchy of academia, viewed through the lens of a grieving wife. Lang Chen remembers the last days of husband @Xiaohong__Xu, a brilliant, beloved sociologist from China who passed away at age 45.

What do I mean by “authoritarian teleology”? (Thank you @kaiserkuo for the plug!) Broadly speaking, it’s a style of thinking that interprets whatever an authoritarian govt does as a “strategy” to “stay/remain/survive in power.” 1/n

China's population size is as much a demographic-political issue, as it is a personal one. How shall we begin to see, from a Sheer Number in a Simple Announcement, Chinese people's livelihood, dignity and resistance, in the throes of all-encompassing authoritarian governance? 1/8

As a social movement scholar, I think the current discussion on the multi-site protests in China has misplaced its focus on whether it would lead to regime change. It is not the point. Let's celebrate PEOPLE and their participation. My preliminary observations.

北京亮马桥 有学生指出,在我们的周围有境外反华势力,导致群众群情激愤;有学生回应称“你说的境外势力,是马克思和恩格斯吗!” 学生继续询问道:“请问新疆的火是境外势力放的吗?请问贵州的大巴是境外势力推翻的吗?” 我们连网都上不到国外的!我们哪来的境外势力!我们只有境内势力不让我们聚集!
