It is a great honor to be invited by the #UniversidaddeGuadalajara to speak about “Neofascism and Democracy” at the 38th International Meeting of Social Sciences, part of #GuadalajaraInternationalBookFair #FILGuadalajara 📚 I look forward to discussing the resurgence of authoritarian and exclusionary ideologies with co-panelists Silvia Bolgherini and José Florencio Fernández Santillán #histodons
As a 1st-time presenter at the 91st Annual Meeting of the #SouthernHistoricalAssociation I thoroughly enjoyed the conference and our panel on “Courts and the State” with Antonio Grilli and Stephen Stillwell. St. Pete treated us to a beautiful sunset after a long day of work #2025SHA #histodons

Huge thanks to Amanda Hsieh and Friedemann Pestel for inviting me to participate in a workshop that brings together historians and musicologists! We reflect on the recent global turn in fascism studies, and we do it in the most beautiful place! @unituebingen #histodons
We have reached the final roundtable of the ‘Power of Laughter. Laughing about Power’ conference at the #CentreMarcBloch feat. David Slucki and Alexandra Oeser, and moderated by Aurélia Kalisky. Huge thanks to both organizers and presenters for such a rich and stimulating conference! 🙏 #histodons
Wonderful to speak about antifascist satire in Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany, and Vichy France, in conversation with Olga Galanova’s paper on political laughter in the GDR, contemporary Russia, Belarus, and China. Sometimes, humor makes the unbearable bearable #PowerofLaughter #LaughingaboutPower #CentreMarcBloch #histodons
