El Gobierno de Ayuso prohíbe las banderas palestinas y el apoyo a Gaza en los colegios madrileños La administración autonómica considera que este es un tema político, pero sí permitió y fomentó la solidaridad con Ucrania

¿Es esta la "libertad" a la que Ayuso alude continuamente en sus discursos publicos?

In a world shaped by the COVID-19 pandemic, rising polarisation, and declining trust in democracy and science, how are people reengaging with politics? 🤔

Are you interested in political partipation among youth and immigrants? @ aleininger.bsky.social and I edited a special issue for Politics and Governance (@cogitatiopag.bsky.social) - here are 13 new articles! doi.org/10.17645/pag...

Voices in the Margins: Exploring the Link Between Discrimination and Adolescents’ Political Involvement | Article | Politics and Governance Philipp Kleer, Simone Abendschön, Gema García-Albacete, Lidia Núñez, David Sánchez

@phil-k.bsky.social et al. study political interest as an essential determinant of political participation. Their findings show a positive relationship between discrimination and political interest. DOI: doi.org/10.17645/pag...

Beyond Gender: Exploring the Intersectional Dynamics in Political Interest Among Youth | Article | Politics and Governance Gema García-Albacete, Lidia Núñez, David Sánchez, Simone Abendschön, Philipp Kleer

@ggalbacete.bsky.social et al. add an additional facet by including gender in their analysis of political interest among adolescents with and without immigrant backgrounds. Their findings show that immigrant‐origin girls have the highest levels of political interest. DOI: doi.org/10.17645/pag...

Very happy that the Special Issue is now out. We contribute with two pieces from the EU-funded www.gepic.eu project @g-epicproject.bsky.social

Unequal Participation Among Youth and Immigrants: Analyzing Political Attitudes and Behavior in Societal Subgroups Thematic Issue, Vol 13 (2025)

Are young people and immigrants heard in politics?

Our new open access issue summarizes research on how they participate, showing where they are left out and what affects their involvement.

Feels like we are amidst a cultural revolution, with denouncements and all that shit.

🚨 RA Job alert! 🚨
I'm looking for a part-time RA (6 months) to join my project on gender-based violence at UAB. 📊 The RA will develop a unique dataset on GBV indicators in Spain💡

🌍 Remote-friendly
💰 Competitive salary

➡️Full details about the position can be found here: www.leirerincon.com/project

We tried to clarify this in the article by presenting two types of evidence (i.e. Figure 1 vs Figure 2). I hope it is more clear now :)

Thank you for your comment. We frame it as positive because it implies an independent positive effect beyond the sum of immigration background and being a woman. That does not need to mean that they are the most interested in politics, that is always relative to which group you compare to.
