Read my new report for Foreign Policy Research Institute on Sudan and Sudan's Wars of Secession: fpri.org/article/2024/0…

An excellent read on the rise of militia states: "The RSF has no plan for governance in Sudan. Its political strategy is simply the mirror image of its former patrons in the security services: to be the rentier elite, not transform the system." bostonreview.net/articles/rule-…

"today’s militias... are the substantive political force organizing much of our world, even if the international system still insists that the nation-state is its operative political unit." On the money from Joshua Craze bostonreview.net/articles/rule-…

"The central tenet of SSR is that a state should have a single unified army and a monopoly of violence within its territory. Its motto might as well be: where the militias are, the state is not. That assumption has been proven false, time and again." Seminal, timeless piece

I mourn the passing of Elias Khoury, even as I prepare to meet him again: the English translation of the second volume of the Children of the Ghetto trilogy will be out with Archipelago Books in November. archipelagobooks.org/book/star-of-t…

The first volume of Elias Khoury's Children of the Ghetto was published by Archipelago Books in 2019. Its meditation on the role of the writer in times of war is so pertinent to our present. He shall be missed. I reviewed My name is Adam in Asymptote Journal: asymptotejournal.com/criticism/elia…
