Hello! I'm here!
I've started a Substack where "translate" political science concepts and theories. I also lean heavy on reading recommendations.
My latest newsletter is a 3-minute read defining "fascism", a word that modern fascists unironically reject.

Thank you! Have a lovely rest of the day!
Hey Emily! I'm a PhD candidate researching Chinese policymaking and modern authoritarianism. You can find me over on Google Scholar:
scholar.google.com/citations?hl...
On socials, I share free academic resources, so I'd really appreciate being added to the science🧪feed!
Bad timing for this question... I've been in a horrible reading slump since summer. Barely been able to read anything, aside from work-related stuff.
When reading feels like a reward or a break from real life, it's easy to read a lot... When it feels like an obligation, however...
I'm open to people outside my niche!
😂
Who should I be following on here?
I care about holding people in public office accountable, protest rights, freedom of information and how authoritarianism functions within otherwise-democratic regimes.
Hit me with the recommendations.
If you're interested in some of the research behind my opinion in the Financial Times here's a snippet of my PhD project, published in the China Quarterly last year:
Policy Experimentation under Pressure in Contemporary China | The China Quarterly | Cambridge Core - bit.ly/3PzMWAU
Got quoted in the @FT today saying it's not easy to be a local government official in China right now.

Apparently I've tricked social media algorithms into giving me all the cute, nerdy linguistic content for the two and a half languages I speak.
This one's from Middle English:
This isn't a "social media isn't always awful" account... But sometimes it just hits in all the right places:
"Indian police clear a suspected Chinese spy pigeon after 8 months in bird lockup."
Social media isn't always awful.
