New publication in @wepsocial.bsky.social! Are young men becoming more conservative? This debate requires a) more nuance and b) theoretical explanations for often descriptive results. With Amy Alexander and Nicholas Charron, we try addressing both. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

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.

It’s been a pleasure to host Dídac Queralt from Yale University in our master’s program. His course on the Political Economy of Public Policies has just wrapped up, leaving our students with a truly enriching learning experience!

In the top affiliations, we see some changes with Gothenburg gaining momentum, and the LSE losing its first place from last year. Happy to see Humboldt making it into the top 10! (All figures are based on the number of (co-)authorships.)
