On varieties of #Eurovision booing: «2006, as it happens, was an important year in the history of Eurovision booing, which does not happen very often (and which will become, as we’ll see, an existential Eurovision problem).» europeanreviewofbooks.com/we-are-the-win…

On Eurovision, how best to LOSE Eurovision, Eurovision’s geopolitics, & when to boo. «Should we see Eurovision as an essential item on the checklist of Europeanization? First EBU, then Eurovision, then the European Union and/or NATO?» Now free: europeanreviewofbooks.com/we-are-the-win…

My long essay in The European Review of Books on Javier Milei and the power of literature to make sense of politics is out from behind the paywall! Featuring eunuchs, freaks, and a giant Borges head that doesn't look like Borges europeanreviewofbooks.com/the-anarcho-as…

This week in front of the paywall we’re showcasing Federico Perelmuter’s raucous, bracing essay on Javier Milei’s weird rise to the presidency of Argentina, and the literary traditions behind it. Will novels help? Read the article here: europeanreviewofbooks.com/the-anarcho-as…

1/ Our latest issue, “America,” explores how the U.S. presidential election affects the rest of the world, and the many ways the U.S. shapes political and cultural debates beyond its borders. thedial.world/issue-21

1/ Teaching American Studies in an election year is a strange exercise—especially abroad, George Blaustein writes. An American Studies professor at the University of Amsterdam, Blaustein considers how the discipline has changed since the end of the Cold War. thedial.world/articles/news/…

Really enjoyed reading this (and many fond memories of George's survey course on American history!)

This is the best magazine on planet Earth. Seriously. A spotless cerebral joy. #philippehuneman ‘s piece on AI and philosophy is incredibly well-written. Every bit of #EuropeanReviewofBooks is a blast.
