🧵 PhD position (75%) in Political Behavior / Political Communication / CSS
📍 LMU Munich | ⏳ 3 years | 🗓 start March–May 2026
We’re hiring for DemocraGPT, a @bidt.bsky.social-funded project developing an AI-based training for difficult conversations in times of growing polarization
The radical right’s master frame remains ethnic nationalism. Remigration is simply one of its logical consequences. First came stopping (or minimizing) immigration; next is pushing people with migrant backgrounds to leave. Expect further radicalization.

Ihr Einwand wird allerdings im Text direkt adressiert:
"Denn: 'Potenziale können sich verändern. Das sehen wir auch in anderen westeuropäischen Ländern', sagt Krause. Die Aussicht auf eine zukünftige Regierungsbeteiligung sei gerade bei rechten Parteien ein wichtiger Faktor. [...]"
Die AfD scheint ihre Potentiale unter den Wählenden aktuell ausgeschöpft zu haben.
Ob dies auch so bleibt hängt, insbesondere von den Regierungsparteien und ihren Signalen nach Rechtsaußen ab.
@zeit.de mit einem spannenden Beitrag zum Thema, zu dem ich auch einige Einschätzungen beisteuern durfte.
Amazing news! Congrats, Matthijs!
