Vous n'avez que 10 minutes à y consacrer, et pourtant vous voulez absolument savoir pourquoi les partis parlent d'Europe sur Twitter. C'est ici 👇

[Cal Le Gall @Cal_Le_Gall]

Ever asked yourself if economic constraints from EU and globalisation affect how we hold incumbents accountable on different policy areas? With @DanJDevine, we tried to answer these questions in a new article, which is now out in @WEPsocial

@Juliette_Dup @DamienBol @MarinaCostaLobo @ChRauh Merci Juliette ! Oui c'était la publique. Effectivement, la thèse était très #RESTEP également ;)

So it was real? 🤯 I defended my PhD last Friday !! So much things to say, but I want to start by saying a huge thank you to my supervisors Virginie Van Ingelgom and @DamienBol, and to Jury members Benoît Rihoux, @MarinaCostaLobo, Laurie Beaudonnet, @ChRauh and Lieven De Winter

[Christian Rauh @ChRauh]

Many congratulations to @AlbanVersailles who just defended his PhD on partisan emphasis of EU affairs on Twitter and the (non-)effects that such messages may have on citizens. Look out for his work!

New @ElectoralStdies! I ask about the existence of a friends-and-neighbors effect for party leaders (using @csestweets). Answer=yes: voters have more sympathy for leaders which run in their own district, and are more inclined to vote for the party of such leaders.#polisciresearch

Tweeting about Brussels?
In this new WP, I show that national parties communicate about European governance, using Twitter data 2009-2019 in 10 countries.
