Varför växer det politiska gapet mellan män och kvinnor? - Förmiddag i P1 Flera rapporter visar att unga kvinnor går allt mer åt vänster medan de unga männen går åt höger. Vad beror det på och får det några konsekvenser?

Pratade om vårt nya forskningsprojekt i P1!

It is 1.4 and the survey had 1800 respondents - still, it’s staggering. My very much educated guess is that Kalle Anka partiet would’ve received more votes if they were an alternative for in the survey

1% 😬

Perhaps they should’ve mentioned a bit more about St Pauli in the article

Also doesn’t make sense? Didn’t she write the article at her former uni? Shouldn’t they get the credits for it?

This corrigendum literary could have been an email

This started as a blog post idea after the 2022 election and somehow turned into a full article that spent almost three years in review purgatory. Had a lot of fun writing it—and happy it’s finally out.

How Car Culture Drives Political Preferences in Rural Regions: Evidence From Sweden Recent research has suggested that the rise of the radical right in rural regions can partly be explained by rural identities. Yet, the nuances of how cultural identities and political allegiances ar...

I wrote an article about cars and correlations: EPA-tractors, youth engine interest, and racing events correlate with radical right support in Sweden—especially around 2022. Correlation ≠ causation, but cultural markers co-vary with political change.
