Any rational version of this story would be about why Gen Z women are so pro-Harris

Tip to not-yet-well-established experts/academics etc: I discovered a few years ago that if you happen to be free in summer (young and childless for example), this *really* is your moment. Journalists and outlets will *love you* if you can talk to/write for them.

Happy to have joined @table.media this week! I'll keep covering and analysing the EU's (geo-)economic policies in a boiling, warring world from here in Brussels. If you have tips, opinions, or just wanna say hi, do reach out!

A pediatrician’s two weeks inside a hospital in Gaza www.newyorker.com/news/q-and-a...

And if I could offer an example around how that manifests: a seven-year-old had deep lacerations to his leg and needed some suturing. It wasn’t a life or death case—it was very simple—but the only pain relief we had was Motrin, which was frankly cruel, and a cruel undertaking. There was no ketamine. And so I tried to use one of my pediatric tools as a distraction. And so I had a light flasher, but he wasn’t interested in any of those designs that I put on the wall. So I tried to distract him from the pain. Usually what I would do is ask questions like, “So who’s your best friend?” I can’t ask that because what if his best friend’s dead? “What’s your favorite subject at school?” He hasn’t been to school in three months. “What’s your favorite food?” I don’t know when the last time he ate would be. Every single facet of their society has been ripped apart. ♦

Today marks my last day @euractiv.com. For the last Economy Brief, I have tried to bring some order into the thoughts that have formed over the past 2.5 years. The EU's security, economic, and ecological challenges are existential and its ordoliberal framework is simply not fit for purpose.

Europe can have ordoliberalism, or it can have a future
Europe can have ordoliberalism, or it can have a future

The EU’s economic policy of the past few years is a story of twisted attempts to adjust its policies to the requirements of the real world within the rigid, ordoliberal framework of the EU Treaties....

In an opinion piece for @Euractive I look at the implications of the constitutional court ruling on the country's economic security agenda It ain't good. Five questions to watch out for in 2024 in light of the Karlsruhe ruling: www.euractiv.com/section/econ...
