The past hour this social media platform has not been a kinder or more sane place than X…

There has never been a more important time to study public policy and public administration. With @fgilardi.bsky.social , I’m chairing the section on these topics for the first @epssnet.bsky.social conference, in Belfast, 18–20 June 2026. Send us your best work: epssnet.org/belfast-2026...

Please share this thread. It is important that political scientists, in Europe and across the world, understand why EPSS exists and why we are encouraging people to attend our inaugural conference, in Belfast next June.

EPSA have announced that they will hold a conference in July 2026. 😵‍💫 We understand that there might be some confusion about EPSS and EPSA. 👉🏽 So we thought we would clarify some things. A short 🧵

New, from me (and featuring @asmusletholsen.bsky.social): I traveled to Copenhagen for the Mikkeller beer festival. My purpose was to resolve the question: Can AI make you a better beer drinker? donmoynihan.substack.com/p/can-ai-mak...

I've talked to Altinget about threats to civil society in Europe. We discussed the European Court of Auditors' new recommendations about more transparency, but also conditionality connected to EU's values. Read in this interview why this can be a problem (in Danish) www.altinget.dk/civilsamfund...

New, from me: Elon Musk is the biggest loser in Wisconsin. His brazen effort to buy a state supreme court did not just fail - it undermined his image of political kingmaker. This is the clearest indicator that voters are angry with Trump/Musk agenda. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-bigges...

Repost fra X onsdag aften (kommentar til debat om postmodernismen som skurken): Min tolkning af hvorfor DR er endt i den største medieskandale siden TV2/Politikens HPV-vaccine-journalistik: Dokumentaren tager grundlæggende afsæt i et godt spørgsmål: Hvad har Danmark fået ud af Grønland? 1/1

Det er immervæk bemærkelsesværdigt, at en chefredaktør affejer den samlede danske økonomstands kritik af udtalelserne fra en økonom med 144 citationer (scholar.google.com/citations?us...) som "småracisme": jyllands-posten.dk/politik/ECE1...

Instruktøren for kryolit-dokumentaren tager til genmæle i P1 Orientering - men svarene er langt fra overbevisende: www.dr.dk/lyd/p1/p1-or... For mig at se er dokumentaren et eksempel på misinformation, som det oftest praksiseres i politik og på sociale medier. 🧵 (1/4)

Denmarks Radio reports that many of the Greenlanders who participated in Donald Trump Jr.’s PR stunt are homeless people, who got “bribed” with a nice dinner in return for being a part of it

Just learned that the great Christopher Hood, a professor of public management at the University of Oxford, has passed. Hard to overstate his influence on the field. At a personal level, both a gentleman and a gentle man. Here is a link to his most-cited work. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

🚨New publication🚨 In a new article in American Journal of Sociology, @tsguul.bsky.social , Kristian K. Jensen, and I show that exposure to ethnic similarity in the local setting increases well-being for the ethnic majority + ethnic minority 🧵👇1/9 Link: www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

Where we are as a country: we need someone to get a non-Mercator map in front of the President-elect (Greenland isn’t that big!) blog.geogarage.com/2017/10/merc...

Could we maybe land a compromise where you get Faroe Islands?

Hey Switzerland: He also said nice things about Belgium, Sweden, and Denmark in previous posts, so don't feel too important now (look at the video reel where Obama, in different press conferences, says every single little European small state "punches above its weight") bsky.app/profile/donm...

Why does integration sometimes lead to more #discrimination? In our survey experiment on the “integration paradox“, immigrants & descendants who learned about research on discrimination against immigrants were (20% of SD) more likely to disclose personal experiences. doi.org/10.1111/pops...

But increased awareness didn’t lead to more support for anti-discrimination policies! This echoes my study with @kkrakows.bsky.social and @asmusletholsen.bsky.social on Danish majority citizens’ misperceptions of discrimination against Muslims: doi.org/10.1111/ajps...

Survey experiments show communicating that Muslims in Denmark are discriminated against does little to change public opinion. Cool new study in @ajpseditor.bsky.social by @mschaeffer.bsky.social @asmusletholsen.bsky.social @kkrakows.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...

(1/7) 📢 New research alert! Even when people are shown clear evidence of #discrimination, it doesn‘t change their support for anti-discrimination policies. Read @kkrakows.bsky.social, @asmusletholsen.bsky.social, and my article in @ajpseditor.bsky.social to find out why: doi.org/10.1111/ajps...

Curious what other Public Administration folks do here? I'm pretty sure I have used the "none" category (which perfectly captures the state of our beloved subfield) bsky.app/profile/mvin...

Not a fan of this episode: Comparing Trump to experinces in Russia, Poland and Hungary without discussing how different and more robust US institutions are will not improve anyones understanding of the problem (but the most recent episode with Steven and Jennifer is stellar) bsky.app/profile/ezra...

With federal employment flatning for 50 years the real action is at the state-level.

Med Elon-Vivek ved roret for den administrative stat bliver forvaltningspolitik "high politics" i Trump '47. Det vil nok ikke gå, som de håber, men forsøget vil gi' bølgeskvulp til DK-debatten om djøficering. En ny "synkronicitet" i den forvaltningspolitiske debat i US og DK.

New, from me: Trump made some big announcements about who serve in his Cabinet. I break down the picks, and beg reporters to cover them accurately. 🧵 open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...
