This article now has page numbers! 🤩 Using data from 28 countries between 1980 and 2021 I find that parties polarize during economic downturns. Further exploring the mechanisms, I show that they do so in reaction to changing voter priorities and grievances. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Interview bei ZEIT ONLINE: Hat die SPD die Arbeiter verloren, weil sie zu viel über das Bürgergeld redet? Unsinn, findet der Soziologe Linus Westheuser. Die SPD brauche ein völlig anderes Konzept. Sie muss bereit sein, sich mit den ökonomischen Eliten anzulegen. www.zeit.de/politik/deut...
