NY publikasjon! Veldig morsomt å se denne artikkelen jeg har skrevet sammen med @TS_Broderstad på trykk i Regional & Federal Studies.

Vi var så heldig å få bruke de fantastiske ressursene som ligger i KODEM-infrastrukturen til å lage et eksperiment om kommunereform,

2/3 Using survey data collected from elected representatives in Norway, we find that not a single issue (local democracy, local belonging, local employment, municipal services and municipal finances) was perceived to have dominated more than others.

All you need to know about trust and municipal amalgamation in Norway from @oyssolvang and colleagues at @ISFnytt!
