Congrats to our Emerging Scholar Award winner: @valentimvicente.bsky.social Vicente Valentim (IE University), honored for his work on party systems and the rise of far-right politics.

Happy to see this out, fruit of a great collaboration w @leonhardschmidt.bsky.social! Looking at European MPs' Facebook posts from 2018-21 calling for protests, we find that mobilization is better explained as a feature of radical than populist parties

Funny how national governments consider that the sale of golden passports to dodgy rich people is a strictly national competence, but regularizing migrants who are working for a living is not.

Twenty-two EU leaders have raised “serious concern” that Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s migration policies are undermining the security of the bloc’s borders.

Why do movements leverage “nationalist discourse” to reclaim popular sovereignty, and what can it tell us about global modernity regimes shaped by neoliberalism and imperialism? 👉 Out now in Social Movement Studies: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... @tandfresearch.bsky.social #Iraq #Tishreen

If a Democratic president started a war of choice, spent $100s of billions, blew up international military & economic alliances, then completely surrendered giving opposing nation $100s of billions in reparations while empowering their anti-US regime: Corporate Media would have justly crucified him.

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

Scientists have reached a consensus that human behavior is a big driver of climate change—but Americans aren't buying it.
