WORKSHOP: APPLYING FOR ERC GRANTS

📍VIRTUAL

ℹ️& register: www.eeassoc.org/news/applyin...

Today, academics and citizens meet at Petralia, Sicily, to talk about how immigration can help with the challenges rural areas are facing. Moderated by @cubel.bsky.social and with @peppeippedico.bsky.social Claudio Deiana and Elisa Cavasino as speakers.

Overview of the study population and data structure. Panel a presents an overview of the data structure and connections between the legislator and academic researcher data sources. Panel b provides a summary of the legislators included in the study.

I use data from lawmakers’ Twitter from countries across the Americas and Europe with a novel database of 410,000 academic researchers on the platform (paired with information about their academic profiles).

*This is the largest study of its kind on politician-academic interactions online.

10/ If you found this paper useful, check our follow-up work with @eleala.bsky.social and @walraslaw.bsky.social, where we ask what happens to public's trust in scientists when they become political? Full thread below bsky.app/profile/pras...

1/ 🚨 Hot off the press! Our study “Political Expression of Academics on Social Media” with @trfetzer.com is now peer-reviewed & live in Nature Human Behaviour @nature.com 🎉. Thread 👇

I just finished meeting with one of our amazing international students who is graduating and was reflecting on their experience here. And then open this.

What a horrible, horrendous thing to do—I hope it can be stopped quickly.

Some thoughts on the strategic rationale behind the "Brandmauer” – the cordon sanitaire vis-à-vis the AfD – and the challenges associated with maintaining it. Seems pertinent, given that senior CDU/CSU figures regularly float the idea of ditching it and exploring avenues for closer cooperation.

Der Kampf um die Demokratie wird lang und zäh Keine hektische Panik nach den Landtagswahlen, aber erst recht keine Illusionen. Wie Berichterstattung die Wahrnehmung von Migration als Problem beeinflusst. Tucholsky erklärt die Berliner.

Happy to attend the @cepr.org Workshop on People’s Understanding of and Support for Economic Policies workshop at St Gallen. I ll share some thoughts on this carefully curated workshop in this thread.

Not at all. Especially in the current climate, though, it is worth documenting the influence of audience perceptions. These reputational costs are non negligible and can lead to information loss in political discourse or, on the other hand, contributing to polarization
