Excited to have signed a contract w/LSE Press (RGS-IBG Book Series):"Alienation and agency: Labour geographies in the age of failing climate mitigation".

My book is on oil workers but I will argue that alienation is a useful term for human geography. What does a geography of alienation mean to you?

Ventura County strawberry workers are harvesting in heavy smoke from the Hughes Fire. We remind workers their employers have to provide them with respirator masks if the AQI exceeds 150. Stay safe! #WeFeedYou

Given the perception of the Nordic model as protecting workers from poor conditions, the rise gig platforms can appear puzzling. In this new article, @alfonsson.bsky.social, S Rasmussen, J Immonen and I explore the platforms' Nordic trajectories and what this tells us about the Nordic model today.

@samindrakunti.bsky.social og jeg har snakket med mange migrantarbeidere i Saudi-Arabia den siste uken. Menneskeskjebner som blir trakassert og behandlet på verst tenkelig vis. Og i mye større skala enn i Qatar. Noen av disse skjebnene får du møte i ukene som kommer. Hold deg fast.
