Happy to have my author copy of “The Recasting of the Latin American Right”. In this chapter, we unpack right wing politics in Venezuela. Who represents “the right”? Find out here ✨

Excited to share my latest #OpenAccess publication! I develop a theory on how courts can counter executive aggrandizement—even in unlikely contexts—offering a fresh perspective on #DemocraticResilience. I welcome any feedback, reactions, or questions! www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Independiente de lo que pase hoy, el futuro de Venezuela se decidirá en sociedad civil. Un análisis muy importante de las colegas @maryhenjimenez.bsky.social y Verónica Zubillaga elpais.com/america/2025... @giga-hamburg.de @elpais.com @redpolitologas.bsky.social @millanos.bsky.social @

🤔 "Venezuela es un buen caso para repensar el arte de la resistencia y la acción colectiva, silenciosa en contextos de arbitrariedad (...) y esencial para restablecer el tejido social y mellar el poder autoritario". Buen ✍️ de @maryhenjimenez.bsky.social y V. Zubillaga elpais.com/america/2025...

A serious question: how will comparative politics respond to the problem of under-powered research (see below)? I hope the the field will lean back into our strength (comparative case study) but I worry it will only tip toward big data. 1: from JOP: shorturl.at/aVJB2 2: from APSR: shorturl.at/sbPUi
