I am so thrilled to see this book taking shape and coming out in July. If you're interested in ❎ negative campaigning, 🥊incivility, 👥 intolerance, and unique data and designs on these topics (comparative experiments (ARG, AUS, GER, USA, ITA), conjoint design, etc.), please consider reading it!

Will Europe Sacrifice the Digital Services Act in Negotiations with Trump? | TechPolicy.Press Jakob Ohme, LK Seiling, and Claes H. de Vreese write that European leaders must protect the DSA to ensure a democratic future.

As EU-US relations change Europe must stand firm for the DSA

The DSA is imperfect, it cannot fix everything. But the DSA is a shield to defend European democracy.
