📗 Published in Policy Studies Journal
doi.org/10.1111/psj....

Our main finding is that stability sentences address conflict-laden policy issues that, if placed on the agenda, could threaten the survival of the coalition. Moreover, they are repeated often across multiple government coalitions and represent a distinct policy agenda.

Ich fand es auch sehr unpassend. Der Verein feiert sich auf der einen Seite immer wieder (richtigerweise) für Werte & Gedenken und macht damit auch PR, spielt aber dann vor so einem Spiel die Onkelz statt Tankard. Da hat man Sachen für die Inszenierung in Kauf genommen, die nicht im Einklang stehen

Are football fans holding stronger European identities than non-fans? That was the question we investigated in our latest paper from the FANZinE project which has just been published in Contemporary European Politics (open access). The short answer is Yes:
