Excited that my article on occupational psychiatry and management science at Roffey Park is out in History of the Human Sciences!
Read if you're curious about how different 'mental health awareness' at work could have been...

Thanks to editors @hanblythe.bsky.social and @sarahvmarks.bsky.social

Yes, “How autism became autism” by Bonnie Evans published in 2013 in @histhum.bsky.social is a great article!

Jessica Dubow's review of Forrester/Cameron's Freud in Cambridge is part of article I'm trying to write. I love how she writes - as well as how she reads the institution of early 20C Cambridge Univ through the fantasy of the family romance @histhum.bsky.social journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Published this doi.org/10.1177/0952... at @histhum.bsky.social striving to fairly represent SSGAC’s apparent efforts to be ethical and progressive while pointing out contradictions. Feels like time wasted! How swiftly eugenics was unmasked under a ‘fair-wind’ far-right govt. The future looks grim.

Congratulations also to Heewon Kim who was awarded a commendation fro the article "Face in Codes: Trained Observers and Sensory Multipliers Across Competing Universes, 1952–1971"

This article will also appear in the journal & interviews with both scholars will appear on our site

Congratulations to Jonah Walters the winner of this year's ECR Prize!

The winning article "The Taser in the Skinner box: Science fiction, aversive conditioning, and the paradigm of electric shock policing" will be published in a forthcoming issue of the journal!

Nicolas Langlitz and Clemente de Althaus on (viewpoint) diversity and the US culture wars, which we published in @histhum.bsky.social, is really worth a read journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Just published: ‘Equality’ has been mobilised (in nuanced and less nuanced ways) to support the genomics of who ‘makes it’ economically and educationally, drawing long-fraught links between cognitive ability, class and, potentially, ‘ancestry’. doi.org/10.1177/0952...

"The feeling that citizens are no longer bound by collective projects, and in hard times, by a collective fate, is perhaps the biggest cultural sickness of all."
