Many congrats @vanessaschwaiger.bsky.social - sounds like a really cool paper! Its findings are very much in line with what we found for GER, POL, SWE and FRA (doi.org/10.1007/978-..., in German only). However, we also found strong signs for political context-effects - do you find that as well?

Non-cooperation is a regular feature of international politics, but research on its various forms is fragmented across IR subfields. Our agenda-setting panel proposes and discusses a more unified framework for studying how actors respond to non-cooperation. Overview paper: shorturl.at/HbIvU
