"The end of economic hegemony? Studying economic ideas in a post-neoliberal world"

In the 20th century, debates on economic policy were closely tied to academic economics. From Keynesianism to neoliberalism, economic schools of thought have shaped historical epochs.
The end of economics hegemony? studying economic ideas in a post-neoliberal world
Since the 1990s, a particular approach to analysing the political influence of economic ideas has emerged in International Political Economy (IPE)—often labelled ‘the ideational turn’. This approac...

It's important to understand that Greenland is not just part of Denmark, but has it's own domestic politics. The current crisis have meant that the Greenlandic government, Naalakkersuisut, have gained greater autonomy and room for maneuver.

This mapping of the GL elite is a good place to start
Since the hegemon's eye is now focussing on Greenland, I recommend revisting our research note in @bjsociology.bsky.social on the Power elite in Greenland

EU citizens - especially those in Greenland - deserve a clear answer to the question of how EU leaders would react to attempts of the US to annex Greenland. Will there be a clear political and economic response? Or is it also going to be a "complex situation" to be "closely monitored"?
This one is resonating today. #Andor
These freaks want territorial expansion and they know Trump will do everything he can to deliver.

This isn’t just a tweet from some random asshole either. This is Stephen Miller’s wife. Miller was in the room with Trump during the kidnapping of Maduro.
Blows my mind that some of the same journalists who see Trump as a want-to-be dictator at home are earnestly discussing the "challenges" for this same man to "bring democracy" to a country it just illegal invaded. Please grow up.

It's seems clear that no country is allowed to have large scale oil reserves unless a pliant member of the US empire
"international law must be followed" is european for "thoughts and prayers"
you don't need to add caveats agreeing that the head of state abducted is a bad guy before opposing abduction of a head of state by military force. If the rule was any head of government is fair game then the entire world would be a series of decapitation strikes and show trials in foreign courts.

This is the end of any notion of international law. The US government (and it's proxies) have claimed the right to invade any country and kill or capture any individual without pretext

The abduction of a head of state and the unprovoked attack on Venezuela are extremely dangerous. This is the most naked form of imperialism, which - if unopposed and unresisted - puts every country and government at the mercy of the US, and any other powerful country that tries to copy it.

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.
Kidnapping the leader of a foreign state without any declaration of war and announcing it via social media is full-on rogue state stuff. From the world’s number one superpower.

Lønmodtagerbeskæftigelsen i #dkøko bliver ved med at slå rekord. Trods utallige meldinger om mangel på arbejdskraft med krav om nye reformer og lempet adgang for arbejdskraft fra 3. lande. Det er attraktivitet og fleksibilitet så det basker #dkpol.

I IDA har vi arbejdet med en takstreform af den kollektive trafik. Herunder "stive køreplaner" = Halvtimes drift.

Nu viser det sig at ikke bare modelberegningerne giver langt flere passagerer. Det gør virkeligheden også. #dktrp #dkpol

Ekstra afgange har fået flere til at tage med letbanen
Flere letbaneafgange om aftenen har udløst en stigning i passagertallet på op til 60 procent om aftenen i tredje kvartal i år sammenlignet med samme periode sidste år. Midttrafik indsatte ekstra aften...

Og det betyder også, at Danmark nu ikke længere er et af Europas allermest lige lande i Europa , som vi plejede, men at der typisk er 10-15 europæiske lande med lavere ulighed. ec.europa.eu/eurostat/dat...

Når vi ser på disse årsager, er der nok desværre ikke noget, der tyder på at der er tale om en blivende tendens, og den nuværende gini-koefficient på 30,4 er stadig høj i historisk sammenhæng.

I toppen er udviklingen også mindre dramatisk end vi er vant til at se, så top 10% ikke ligger med den højeste indkomststigning. DST fremhæver ikke selv årsagen her, men mon ikke den dårlige udvikling på det danske aktiemarked og hos store privatejede firmaer i de sidste år, spiller ind.

Det opmuntrende er, at udviklingen især er drevet af en stigende indkomst blandt de laveste indkomster, med en fremgang på 5,1%. Danmarks Statistik fremhæver især at det er et faldende antal studerende gruppen, der driver udviklingen, hvilket selvfølgeligt er et problem på den lange bane.

For en sjælden gang skyld er der gode nyheder fra ulighedsfronten. Den seneste opgørelse af gini-koefficienten fra Danmarks Statistik viser et lille fald fra fra 30,6 i 2023 til 30,4 i 2024.

It does however, falsify the idea that the right turn on immigration will stop right populism permanently. Despite this strategy we are now seeing a resurgent right, dominated by seriously extreme policies of 're-migration' (basically ethnic cleansing by public policy).

thanks a lot for that Mike. To be honest, I'm not sure if anti-immgration/left populist has that much to do with the downturn (Frederiksen was quite succesfull 2015-2022). It's more the centrist orientation and the grand coalition.
