Blog changes

My attempts to keep track of scholar bloggers (term © Jacob Levy, 2002) are leading to an increasingly cumbersome blogroll, so I’ve done some reorganizing. Scholar bloggers are now grouped according to academic discipline, to make it easier for readers to pick and choose the ones they might be interested in. Of course, I’ve made some arbitrary choices; if anyone thinks that they’ve been misclassified, and cares enough to email me, I’ll make the necessary changes.

My criteria for scholar bloggers are threefold - either (a) holding an academic position at a third level institution, or (b) pursuing a Ph.D. or equivalent degree at same, and © not propagating an ideological position that I find downright revolting (racist, fascist, homophobic, advocating forcible deportation of Jews/Arabs/whoever). Feel free to email me with nominations for other scholar-bloggers that I should be listing. As this means that I will sometimes list blogs that I don’t necessarily read all that often, I’ve picked out a few blogs that I find of particular interest myself, and added two stars after them. Maria will likely be making a couple of additions of her own in due course, and I’ll be chopping and changing myself, as I figure out which ones I really read.
