Happy to share our new paper "Neoliberal pathways to the #bioeconomy: Forest land use institutions in Chile, Finland, and Laos" Open Access:
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1389934123001363
By #JuhaHiedanpää, #MattiSalo and myself. #JustGlobe project.
Taking an institutional perspective to land use planning & change, we explore the different varieties of neoliberalism in relations to bioeconomy; from Utopian neoliberalism in #Chile, to Authoritarian neoliberalism in #Laos and the Nordic variety in Finland.

Lu Siwei, avocat spécialiste des droits de l'homme fuyant la Chine, a été arrêté au Laos. Les militants et les membres de sa famille craignent qu'il ne soit expulsé vers la Chine, où il pourrait être emprisonné.

People in the region are advised to take precautions against mosquitoes, especially in the dawn and evening hours. Travelers to Laos in particular should take care, as standards of medical care can be poor and many #Lao hospitals are also reporting shortages of medications.

I have to leave the country for visa reasons. On Monday, Sai and I are traveling by land to Pakse, Laos where we will be staying for two nights.
We will take the motorbike into Sisaket, park it by the train station, and board the earliest train to the end of the line at Ubon Ratchathani. From there hop on a tuk-tuk or songthiew to the bus station for the international bus to Pakse.
I took that bus on my first solo trip to #Laos from #Thailand in 2015.

In #Thailand there are no Target stores. Nor is there a manufactured crisis or moral panic about #PrideMonth.
In Savannakhet #Laos, there is a chain of convenience stores which are not affiliated with #Target in the USA but have copied the name and logo.

"The Lao government should urgently conduct a credible and impartial investigation into Anousa's death and bring to justice all those responsible."

The idea of communism is a society of economic equality where the state distributes the wealth evenly.
None of the above countries, or any country ever, fit that description.
They twisted communism into a #FarRight #dictatorship where the wealth is held by the state and the people have few human rights.

🚃 Ya he comentado varias veces lo que me gusta viajar en #tren y, a partir de este mes, se abre una nueva posibilidad en #Asia, ya que entra en funcionamiento la línea que conecta la capital de #Laos, Vientiane, con la ciudad #china de Kunming.

The Chi and Mun River are the two largest #rivers within #Isaan or Northeastern Thailand. The Mun-Chi river basin is the highlighted region in the map below, and I added a rough outline of our province. The flow of waterways in Isaan south of the Mun River is generally to the north and northeast. The Chi River empties into the Mun at the extreme northeast of Sisaket Province, and from there the Mun runs to the border of #Thailand & #Laos where it empties into the #Mekong.
