A eulogy from Will here on what we were able to do at PERC, with a handful of staff, a small budget, a willingness to carry furniture when organising events, a brilliant wider network & some amazing students. It was a very special time and place.

Incredibly happy and relieved that our special issue Asset Struggles co-edited with @theobourgeron.bsky.social is now accepted for publication at NPE!
More on the issue soon. For now: a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has been involved in this over the past few years – you are the best!
