Deeply honored to receive this award from the European Academy of Sociology.
It means a lot to receive an award named after such an influential scholar, and to be mentioned in the same breath as the outstanding researchers who have received it before.
Looking forward to Paris!

Corruption is known to harm economic growth, public trust, and the fabric of society. But might it also be dangerous for a country’s security? Find out in my first @APSAtweets blog! ⤵️ @daniel__auer https://t.co/ItBRxwA04C
Bribes lead to bombs, say Daniel Meierrieks and @daniel__auer. They find in a new @apsrjournal article that corruption causes terrorism as citizens are deprived of public goods and counterterrorism capacity falters. Read more:

The issues of random allocation policies are known for some time now. This one might be particularly striking. Policymakers would be well advised to take such (un)intended consequences into account. https://t.co/aH1AP0fqjJ @tagesanzeiger

The effect of language skills of to-be-mothers on their kids' birthweight is about 72 grams, roughly half of the effect of quitting smoking during pregnancy!
@fgenovese__ @r_senninger Thanks for the mention and the great list @fgenovese__ and @r_senninger ! (Everytime Shaqiri scores I'm anxiously awaiting his celebration, thinking I should have done an experiment ...)
Publication alert!
*Bribes and Bombs: The Effect of Corruption on Terrorism* - open access in the American Political Science Review
Daniel Meierrieks & I estimate how corruption raises the probability of terrorist attacks in a country.
@CollegioCA@WZB_Berlin@apsrjournal
We show that the higher likelihood of attacks seems to be driven by the adverse effects of corruption on public goods provision and a deterioration of counter-terrorism capacity.
Counter-corruption actions (but also foreign aid!) may reduce terrorism.
