🚨 New Working Paper 🆕

In light of the UK extreme-right (ER) riots & Tommy Robinson's role in them, our conditionally accepted @BJPolS paper w/@FlorianFoos shows a causal effect of media exposure to extreme right actors, incl. Robinson, on support for extreme right views: https://t.co/ab8f91mCqH 1/11

Heading to ASA to present a paper on what determines social status in Britain using a new conjoint experiment that had people 30,720 status judgements (screenshot below)

[Thomas Kurer @thmskrr]

@jon_mellon Very interesting! This takeaway resonates with findings from @T_Palmtag @dpzollinger @magda_breyer based on a very different empirical approach: https://t.co/R3Khnvl8Qr

Very interesting new evidence on intergenerational mobility and anti-system support using Diagonal Reference Models.

🚨New article❗️

Where has everyone gone? Depopulation and voting behaviour in Spain @EJPRjournal with my brilliant coauthors @alsanchezgarcia @iMariathin https://t.co/p3iZ8ZuLQM @PolitiquesUPF

🚜Does depopulation change electoral support? Which party benefits from it?🧵

[Leo Baccini @LeoBaccini]

Very excited that my paper with @SattlersThomas is now published in @AJPS_Editor. We contribute to a big controversial debate: Does austerity fuel populism? Our answer: Yes, it does especially among the most vulnerable part of the workforce. Enjoy it!

Happy to see our review essay on the political economy of AI published today! Musckaan Chauhan & I argue for greater attention to macro factors, as well as for how AI's distributional impact may differ from other forms of automation https://t.co/qKo0LgP4oq
