«In der Schweiz ist es häufig eine Blackbox, welche Gelder zu unseren gewählten Vertreter:innen fliessen», so Dr. Oliver Huwyler.
Die Studie von @ohuwyler.bsky.social , @stefaniebailer.bsky.social und @nathaliegiger.bsky.social zeigt klar: Transparenz wirkt – selbst bei hohen Nebeneinkünften. 👉🕵️♀️
When parliamentarians disclose their additional income from lobbying work, they gain more trust from the electorate. Even those who receive very large financial contributions benefit from greater transparency.

Sexist harassment on online platforms discourages young women from getting involved in politics, as shown by a new study by @dahoehmann.bsky.social, Tomoko Latteier and @stefaniebailer.bsky.social. The consequences are not only borne by those directly affected, with democracy also being harmed.

Empirically, we draw on an original survey of youth party members in Switzerland 🇨🇭 The results show pronounced gendered patterns in the character and consequences of online abuse.

1️⃣ Young women are more likely to be attacked based on their gender.
2️⃣ Women youth party members are more likely to indicate that this is a reason for them to resign from politics.
▶️ A first leak in the political pipeline that threatens equal representation and democratic inclusion.
The study investigates the frequency, character, and consequences of online abuse among youth party members and asks to what extent it affects women’s and men’s decisions to pursue a career in politics.

shows that online abuse on social media discourages young women from pursuing political offices—before their actual political careers have even begun.

Nice! Just ordered it. I had already fun with Manow's core trivialities of democracy, so I am keen to look at yours!

I got a job as a policy adviser in a unit of the Cabinet Office called the Better Regulation Executive, a job title that would end conversation with most polite company. I had even started shortening what I told people I did. One day I returned home to the flat I shared with two other New Zealanders in Fulham. Our upstairs neighbour was sitting on the front step, taking in some rare British sunshine. We got to talking, and when it came to what we were doing for work, I told him I worked in the Cabinet Office. "Oh, right," he said in a thick Australian accent and nodding his head. There was a pause. "What type of cabinets do you make?" He wasn't being cheeky; his question was genuine. "Dining and occasional," I replied. I smiled, and left him to his sun-bathing.
Haha
(Generally a pretty good read btw)
