How do attitudes to 🇪🇺 European integration relate to political ideology and policy preferences? A major update of my study: - I added the latest 2023 ESS data for citizens and 2024 CHES data for parties - I built an app to explore these relationships across datasets, indicators, years & countries

High time for some professional news: Happy to share that I’ll be joining the University of Amsterdam as Assistant Professor in EU Politics & Governance from January 🎓🇪🇺. Excited to meet new colleagues and to return to Amsterdam’s sunsets and canals, a city that has always felt a bit like home 🛶.

🍵 Keep calm and avoid polity politicisation 🤝 Hanspeter Kriesi examines policy politicisation during COVID-19 and finds that, despite tensions, de-escalation and polity-maintenance mechanisms prevented a spillover into polity politicisation 👇 🔗 www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

It was great to be back at @eui-schuman.bsky.social for a workshop on "The EU between differentiation, disintegration, and enlargement". Find most papers on @wepsocial.bsky.social (tinyurl.com/bdz7arw7) and @jeppjournal.bsky.social (tinyurl.com/4htxs4hk). Thanks to all organisers and participants!

As I am fairly new to Bluesky, this comes a bit late, but it is still worth checking out: Our #oa introduction to the @jeppjournal.bsky.social special issue on "Europe’s Changing Protest Landscape" with @sophiahunger.bsky.social www.tandfonline.com/toc/rjpp20/3...

no better way to depart from #ecprgc25 than 👀 my paper just published in @eupthejournal.bsky.social! I find localism in an unlikely place & show that people feel more represented when they live in incumbent MEPs' hometowns, using survey data from 🇷🇴🇭🇺🇮🇹🇧🇪 doi.org/10.1177/1465... #Polisky

It was a privilege to discuss this great book by @ztruchlewski.bsky.social, @nenaoana.bsky.social, @alexmoise.bsky.social and Hanspeter Kriesi @ces-europe.bsky.social . It is a must read on how Europeans stood together during the pandemic and whether such solidarity was exceptional or the new norm.

New book out at @oxfordacademic.bsky.social on COVID and the EU by @nenaoana.bsky.social @alexmoise.bsky.social and Hanspeter Kriesi. The book was presented at the @eui-eu.bsky.social @eui-sps.bsky.social with very insightful comments by @simonhix.bsky.social www.eui.eu/events?id=57...

Congrats to @nenaoana.bsky.social, Marcello Natili and his moustache for new smarticle in @jeppjournal.bsky.social on public support for the EU during crises. A short 🧵: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

The EU 'binds' together (especially in times of crisis)🛠️🛤️ ❓@ztruchlewski.bsky.social,Marcello Natili and @nenaoana.bsky.social investigate what drives public support for EU polity building. 💡 They find that crises increase support for EU polity building, especially in redistributive areas.

Or this joint experiment by @nenaoana.bsky.social and Alexandru D. Moise on energy policy in the EU: journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

The book builds on and further develops recent publications like this one which offers an original framework for analysing how external threats shape European integration link.springer.com/article/10.1...

The book develops a novel framework for understanding European polity formation and brings a wealth of data to analyse public preferences in 4 policy field - all open access and financed by the wonderful @solid-erc.bsky.social at @eui-schuman.bsky.social @lse-ei.bsky.social and the U. of Milano

@financialtimes.com reporting that 🇪🇺 is discussing setting up a 500bn 💶 defence fund Some ‘details’ coming out suggest that its set-up might be clever for convincing fiscal hawks to join: - voluntary nature backed by national guarantees not 🇪🇺-wide -open to others, 🇬🇧🇳🇴 -EIB role shorturl.at/FX315

I have updated the interactive dashboard of #asylum #migration statistics with the Eurostat data for 2023. anonyms.shinyapps.io/asylum/ You can use the dashboard to explore trends in asylum applications, decisions and recognition rates across the EU 🇪🇺 since 2011.

While watching the news like a car-crash in slow motion, two hot/fast takes on the #RomanianPrezidentialElection: 1) trivial take - massive failure of polling companies (including exit polls) which were consistently wrong by more than 10% on Georgescu and need a big lesson in non-response bias.

A thread about being wrong: 5 years ago, we wrote a paper about how how newly enfranchised 16-year-olds vote in Austria. But we were wrong. This year, @elisabethgraf.bsky.social, @schnizzl.bsky.social, Sylvia Kritzinger and I are setting the record straight: authors.elsevier.com/c/1juT5xRaZk...
