It was lovely to be invited at the University of Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy) to talk about #political #psychology in general terms, and present my studies on #populism and #identity #threat.

✨️Ravi d'annoncer qu' @afr-psypol.bsky.social, dont je suis co-président, débarque sur bluesky. Aujourd'hui la #psychologie #politique est un champ pluridisciplinaire trop fragmenté dans le contexte francophone. AFR-PsyPol a l'objectif de rassembler les chercheur•e•s et acteurs intéressés.
