📢"Demokratische Öffentlichkeit beginnt dort, wo Aufmerksamkeit nicht ökonomisch gesteuert, sondern gemeinschaftlich gestaltet wird." Gastkommentar von Prof. Anna Durnová (Politische #Soziologie) im Standard zum österreichweiten Projekt "3 Wochen ohne Smartphone" @evrop-anka.bsky.social @univie.ac.at

Wir sind den Kindern Alternativen zu Social Media schuldig

Keine Informationen, sozial vergessen? Das Handy verspricht Abhilfe. Doch wir überlassen es Firmen und ihren Algorithmen, alles zu bestimmen. Dem gehört etwas entgegengesetzt

Wonderful 2nd day at #ecprjs25 in Prague. Together with @sonjablum.bsky.social and Chris Weible from @ucdenver.bsky.social we have collected papers analysing emotions in policy studies. Focusing on methodology we dive deep in the analysis — like here with @cidape.bsky.social

Last week in Madrid was both inspiring and bothersome. Many eager to do something about the increasing #polarisation | but the numbers do not look good: genders drifting apart in their values; classes drifting apart… which affects media and politics. Any reads on this? @depolarisingeu.bsky.social

@evrop-anka.bsky.social at COST Action @depolarisingeu.bsky.social last week, to present CIDAPE’s new methodology for understanding #emotions in #climate discourse. WP1 is establishing an “Interpretative Emotions Analysis” framework, using emotions as a critical lens to address polarised debates.

Emotions are part of climate knowledge— let’s ponder them differently - as glimpses into our values and actions, as something that can brings us closer as humans. On this #earthday and beyond @cidape.bsky.social @univie.ac.at @ifswien.bsky.social

This #EarthDay, we reflect on the emotions that shape how we engage with the climate emergency: grief, anger, hope... How do you feel about it? Emotions are a form of climate knowledge. They reveal what matters and what futures we’re willing to fight for. #ClimateEmotions #EarthDay2025 #CIDAPE
