But I was a little curious about the apparent urgency concerning questions that had laid dormant since the 1930s. At the end of the exchange he thanked me profusely, because his wife was undergoing emergency surgery and he had to keep his brain occupied elsewhere. I thought a bit about that when I was waiting for my own partner to come out of cancer surgery. Years later I learned that he was part of a group of founding members of the Socialist Workers Party who had resigned out of principle. A senior SWP cadre had apparently raped a comrade and the party investigation had whitewashed him, so somebody had leaked the affair to the Guardian and been disciplined for it. I was speaking at a conference organized by SWP supporters in Korea, and asked his advice, and again found him large-spirited, generous, but with some kind of steel reinforcement bar where most of us just carry a backbone.

Date: February 5, 2019 at 7:58:27 PM GMT+7 To: > Reply-To: > Dear colleagues I am writing with a final reminder that the deadline for abstracts for the next edition of the AFPP conference is nearly upon us. Please send your abstracts by Monday 11th February to afpp@manchester.ac.uk All previous editions of this conference have been organised by Colin Barker and Mike Tyldesley. It is with sadness that we pass on the news that Colin died yesterday, peacefully on the morning of 4th February. AFPP is just one of the legacies of Colin?s remarkable generosity of spirit and life-long commitment to making a better world. We gratefully remember his good humour, intelligence, kindness and political commitment. This year the conference will host a roundtable in which friends, comrades and colleagues will celebrate Colin?s life and work. Speakers will include: Ian Allinson, Tithi Bhattacharya (tbc), Laurence Cox, Gareth Dale, John Krinsky, Jane McAlevey, Trevor Ngwane and Mike Tyldesley. Call for Papers The Conference rubric and structure will remain much as in previous years. The aim is to explore the dynamics of popular social movements, along with the ideas which animate their activists and supporters and which contribute to shaping their fate. Reflecting the inherent cross-disciplinary nature of the issues, previous participants (from over 60 countries) have come from such specialisms as sociology, politics, cultural studies, social psychology, economics, history and geography. The Manchester conferences have been notable for discovering a fruitful and friendly meeting ground between activism and academia. We invite offers of papers relevant to the conference themes. Papers might address such matters as: ? contemporary and historical social movements and popular protests ? social movement theory ? utopias and experiments ? ideologies of collective action ? social movements and everyday politics To offer a paper, please send a title, abstract (max 300 words) and 4-6 keywords to the organisers at afpp@manchester.ac.uk including ?ABSTRACT SUBMISSION? in the email subject field. If your abstract is accepted we will also ask you to supply a written paper in advance of the conference, which will be distributed to all participants in advance. Ideally, this would take the form of a fully-referenced working paper, of 6-8,000 words in length in MS Word .docx, Adobe .pdf or compatible format. However, some speakers have submitted different kinds of documents in the past (e.g. extended notes; powerpoint slideshows and so on). We are open to the submission of such documents instead of a working paper as long as they successfully communicate the main argument and evidence base for your paper to a scholarly audience and without the need for specialist software. Deadlines ? Receipt of abstracts: Monday 11th February 2019. We aim to respond by 1st March. ? Conference registration: Monday 1st April 2019 ? Receipt of full papers: Monday 1st April 2019 These are final dates. The earlier we receive abstracts, and actual papers, the better. Arrangements & Fees The conference will run from lunch-time Monday 15th April until after lunch on Wednesday 17th April 2019 at The Manchester Meeting Place, Sackville St, Manchester. Registration fees cover participation, three lunches and coffee breaks. Fees are set at: ? Full rate: ?150 ? PGR/precarious: ?90 The ?PGR/precarious? fee is intended for doctoral students and those on short term contract work where there is no access to discretionary funds for conferences. Conference participants will also be invited to dine together at two local (and not too expensive) restaurants on the two conference evenings with payment to be made directly at the restaurants.

Date: Fri, Feb 22, 2019 at 2:16 PM Subject: [liberationtech] Hiring Internet censorship researchers (MENA, Turkey, China, Iran, Pakistan) To: Dear colleagues, Netalitica is looking to hire researchers to investigate Internet censorship in the following regions/countries: MENA, Turkey, Pakistan, China and Iran. *About Netalitica* Netalitica is a new research-oriented organization in the Internet freedom community which focus is on investigating information controls, Internet censorship and surveillance in various parts of the world. It has been recently set up to conduct its first project called ?Improving Test Lists of Censored Online Content?. *About the project* This project aims to improve Citizen Lab?s test lists that network measurement tools (i.e. *OONI Probe* ) use to do their job. If network probes have evolved over the years, test lists for some countries have seen little updates, which negatively affects the quality of collected measurements and wastes resources of testers on the ground. This project aims to address these issues by updating the test lists of select censorship hot spots. To reach this goal, Netalitica is looking to hire: ? One *Regional Researcher* to update the lists for select Middle East and North Africa states (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Yemen, Syria, Morocco, Tunisia and others); ? Four *Country Researchers* to service the lists for Turkey, Pakistan, China and Iran. More countries will be added as the project unfolds. This is a part-time position where country researchers will be hired on a monthly basis. *What will you do:* As a *country researcher,* you will have one month to service the test lists of your state of interest and you will be hired for this duration of time. The MENA *regional researcher* will be asked to update the lists of at least seven countries from that area and will be hired for the entire duration of the project, starting from March 1 until September 30. The expectation is that you will spend 3.5 hours daily to conduct the following activities: ? Update the test lists for your respective country(s) with fresh URLs of recently blocked or likely to be blocked critical websites. For this purpose, you will examine various resources reporting information on Internet censorship topics such as analytical reports, media accounts, social media channels of Internet freedom activists, etc. ? Examine and clean ?country? test lists from faulty URLs; ? Balance ?country? lists to include representative number of URLs from each category; ? Examine and clean the ?global? test list from faulty URLs; ? Outreach to local Internet freedom organizations, researchers and activists to further improve the quality of test lists; ? Meet online weekly with the rest of the team; ? Assist community researchers in areas serviced by the project; *You should have:* ? Excellent reading and writing skills in the main language(s) spoken in your country/region of interest ? Strong communication and research skills ? Knowledge of the Internet landscape of your country of interest, including the Internet filtering regime, Internet freedom organizations, etc. ? Outreach experience ? Experience in conducting research on Internet censorship topics will be an asset ? Experience using anonymization tools and ability to conduct this research safely ? Familiarity with using social media platforms popular in your focus country ? Experience using network measurement tools (OONI probe) is an asset ?
