The dynamic and interconnected ways Afghans and Iranians invented their modern selves through literature. Contrary to the presumption that literary nationalism in the Global South emerged through contact with Europe alone, Reading Across Borders: Afghans, Iranians, and Literary Nationalism (University of Texas Press, 2024) demonstrates how the cultural forms of Iran and Afghanistan as nation-states arose from their shared Persian heritage and cross-cultural exchange in the twentieth century. In

Content moderation on social media has become one of the most daunting challenges of our time. Nowhere is the need for action more urgent than in the fight against terrorism and extremism. Yet despite mass content takedowns, account suspensions, and mounting pressure on technology companies to do more, hate thrives online. Safe Havens for Hate: The Challenge of Moderating Online Extremism (Princeton University Press, 2025) looks at how content moderation shapes the tactics of harmful content

读经一（天主使万世协助那些爱他的人得到益处。）恭读圣保禄宗徒致罗马人书 8:26-30弟兄们：圣神扶助我们的软弱，因为我们不知道怎样祈求才对，而圣神却亲自以不可言喻的叹息，代我们转求。那洞悉心灵的天主，知道圣神的意愿是什么，因为圣神是按照天主的旨意代圣徒转求。我们知道：天主使一切都协助那些爱他的人，就是他照自己的旨意所召叫的那些人，获得益处，因为他所预拣的人，也预定他们与他儿子的肖像相同，好使他儿子在众多弟兄中做长子。天主不但召叫了他所预定的人，而且也使他所召叫的人成义，并使成义的人，获享光荣。——上主的圣言。答唱咏 咏12:4-6答：上主，我仰赖你的慈爱。领：上主，我的天主！求你垂顾我，应允我，求你照亮我的眼睛，不要让我沉睡丧亡，免得我的仇敌说：“我战胜了他！”免得我跌倒时，仇人欢欣若狂。答：上主，我仰赖你的慈爱。领：但我却仰赖你的慈爱，我的心灵因你的救援而欢乐，我要向厚待我的上主呕歌。答：上主，我仰赖你的慈爱。阿肋路亚 得后2:1-4答：阿肋路亚。领：天主藉福音召唤了我们，使我们获得我们的主耶稣基督的光荣。答：阿肋路亚。福音（从东方和西方将有人来，在天主的国里吃饭。）恭读圣路加福音

The cure for what ailed the school system was clear, she believed: high-stakes standardized testing, national standards, accountability, competition, charters, and vouchers. Then Ravitch saw what happened when these ideas were put into practice and recanted her long-held views. The problem was not bad teachers or failing schools, as conservatives claimed, but poverty. She denounced privatization as a
