Are you interested in how interactions with the state can positively and negatively impact trust across different institutions? @DanielLaParra15 and I investigated this possibility focusing on the Roma in Europe in our new article in @EuroSocieties1

Chapeau! The president at Berlin University stands her ground preventing the police from entering the building explaining that she hasn't called them, that they are unwanted, and that students in solidarity with Palestine pose no threat.

Bombing a UN school sheltering war refugees. Bombing again the survivors and those rushing to aid. Leaving only a haunting silence. A daily live-streamed extermination, without even bothering anymore to fabricate some military objective for Western journalists to copy-paste.

NEW: Trump’s plans for mass deportations is getting a head start from Biden.
During Biden's final year, ICE has extended 14 contracts with private prison companies to run immigration jails.

There's a massive racial gap in tickets from officer stops, but there is none for camera tickets. New evidence from the US.

What a chart. PNAS paper

Is there another word for sending troops across an internationally recognized border without the other country’s permission?

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

UNHCR issues new guidance urging states not to penalize asylum-seekers for irregular entry. Seeking asylum is a fundamental human right, not a crime.

Today's must-read: "lobbyists working for major North American oil and gas companies were key architects of anti-protest laws that increase penalties and could lead to non-violent environmental and climate activists being imprisoned up to 10 years."

Public opinion about NATO membership among Swedes has been called the largest and fastest shift in public opinion ever measured in Swedish history.

In a new article, @_jeffmitchell_, A. Bohman, @MaureenEger, and M. Hjerm try to explain how it happened:

🚨 Leaked chats show how the U.S.-backed Ecuadorian Attorney General, Diana Salazar, is using her office to undermine the left-wing party.

There are MAJOR revelations in this story.

We know a lot about how native-born individuals react to migrants. But how does migration shape the attitudes of migrants themselves?
The first paper from our years-long field experiment on migration (w/ @nikhargaikwad and @aliz_toth) is ONLINE at @AJPS_Editor ! (1/n)

[Alexander Kustov @akoustov]

This is huge! The first RCT evidence convincingly showing the positive effects of the individual migration experience on tolerance and cosmopolitan attitudes

I wrote about the menagerie of twin heritability models and the wide range of estimates they are reporting. Another front in the missing heritability debate that has been simmering since the 1970's and now rekindled by newer data.

Cori Bush came to congress as a Ferguson protester. The 10-year anniversary of Mike Brown’s death is Friday, and tonight, she lost her seat in Congress—because she brought those same values beyond St. Louis and called for a ceasefire in Gaza. https://t.co/zAOejdRH1P
