@JMGlachant And it is definitely not the Council of Europe! XD

@gnievchenko Agree... but on gunpoint... I guess D gets u a lot of nom for the buck... Even some Aussie kitchen and Mediterranean diet in the whole Central/South Asian/Middle East pot. And maybe there is still a hint of Italy.

@drguidoknapp I was searching for that painting and the artist for years. Thanks!

Climate laggard Poland?

Not anymore - coal used to provide 95% of Polish electricity.

Last year it was 53.5% with wind & solar providing almost one quarter.

All three statements are true at the same time

Hard to overstate just how rapid the changes in US party coalitions have been.

The Democrats are now the party of high education *and* high income voters. Just 12 years ago, the inverse was true.

On these terms, the Trump coalition was closer to Obama 2008 than the Harris one!

@sc_cath @_alice_evans @jburnmurdoch That is a good point. Good observation. Could be that they just cancel each other out in the aggregated data.

Thank you for the additional information @jburnmurdoch

[Alice Evans @_alice_evans]

"Ideological polarisation" is a common theme among US commentators,

Republicans and Democrats are moving further apart

But what about heterogeneity?

White Democrats are the ones increasingly expressing a very different political ideology.

@simonjhix I remember when I was in the early phase of my PhD studies, I asked an older friend who already had its PhD for years: What is the hardest thing when writing a dissertation?

He pondered a few seconds and said:
Bearing the struggle.

Cool.

We bet you've heard a lot about the EU institutions lately! But do you know what each one does? ❓

We've got you covered! 🤗

We've put together a super easy-to-understand image that explains it all in one go.

🤳Check it out!

Even major #IOs, such as the League of Nations, are sometimes terminated. What happens after IOs cease to exist?

International cooperation lives on through other institutions argue @DijkstraHylke, @DebreMaria & I in a study recently published in @BritJPIR.

Delighted this project with two fantastic colleagues is out🙏

Using diff-in-diff models, we test whether hiring revolvers pays off for organized interests by gaining access to policymakers, revealing mixed outcomes depending on the types of meetings and advocates

@eu_milos Im Just glad that I could tell 30 young students: Don't stick to the co-decision procedure ^^

[Rainer Müller | Mastodon: @[email protected] @de_rainer]

@eu_milos True. 1st thing I told my studentens back then:
Forget the flow charts.
Main action takes place beween the lines. Literally.

Still shocking to me how little is known in academia about the actual decision making process. And I am no exception.
