The online transnationalisation of populist radical right publics

cambridge.org

It is out in the world! 🎉 'The online transnationalisation of populist radical right publics' is published open access in the @ejprjournal.bsky.social. In this, I ask: which factors explain transnational online engagement with PRR communications?🧵 [1/7]

Some emails just turn a day into one to remember. ✨ Now forthcoming in the @ejprjournal.bsky.social, “The Online Transnationalisation of PRR Publics”, my second solo article.

As the acknowledgements explain, this project has had a long (and sometimes bumpy!) journey. But we’re very proud of the result. @casmudde.bsky.social & I will be presenting it at @ces-europe.bsky.social in Dublin on 16 June, the day after it goes online. If you're at the conference, drop in!

Coming out in June. (when @casmudde.bsky.social & I will be presenting it at the @ces-europe.bsky.social conference in Dublin)

Last week, our excellent PhD researcher @fravittonetto.bsky.social published this piece on @ecprtheloop.bsky.social: theloop.ecpr.eu/populist-pub...

On @ecprtheloop.bsky.social I present key insights from my recent @ausjpolsci.bsky.social article on transnational populist publics. The blogpost includes examples that didn’t fit into the main piece, and shows how leaders like Trump and Meloni are now global icons for the PRR.

Our excellent PhD researcher, @fravittonetto.bsky.social, presented his study today of transnational Youtube publics of the populist radical right. He's doing ground-breaking work that's making his supervisors very proud!

I had a great long chat earlier this morning with Steve Austin on ABC about Gen-Z voting, how parties seek to engage with young people, and much else besides! (including my Gen-Z daughter's view of youth wings...) From around 1:43 here: www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

In today's @theconversation.com, @duncanmcdonnell.bsky.social, Ferran Martinez i Coma and I write about Gen-Z turnout in Australia: theconversation.com/47-of-gen-z-... A short thread on our main takeaways, based on our survey of over 1,300 Gen-Z Australians:

47% of Gen Z mainly vote to avoid a fine. It’s a sign of younger Australians’ discontent with democracy

With Gen Z and Millennials combined now outnumbering Baby Boomers as the dominant voter bloc, their votes will shape the election. But do they care?
