Do not miss our article published at @politicsgenderj.bsky.social Using content analysis and survey data, we show how generalist influencers in consumer markets produce anti-feminist content and how it can shape, reinforce, or shift public attitudes toward feminism

"the kind Václav Havel described as hope without optimism: a moral duty, sustained even when outcomes seem bleak" read the great article of @leaypi.bsky.social for @projectsyndicate.bsky.social www.project-syndicate.org/magazine/yea...

Tribuna | "No debemos perder de vista a los influencers generalistas, quienes, de forma sutil y ocasional, también contribuyen a promover una visión hostil hacia el feminismo y la igualdad de género, especialmente entre los jóvenes". Por Marta Fraile

📢 ¿Escuchan los políticos menos las demandas de las mujeres que las de las hombres? 🏛️ Por desgracia, sí. Cuanto mayores sean las discrepancias entre mujeres y hombres, menor atención prestan los políticos a las mujeres. @bcaihuelas.bsky.social @divulgauc3m.bsky.social youtu.be/qEyGuMNfLK4?...

Extraordinary scenes in Serbia’s capital Belgrade right now. Around 500,000 people are on the streets in what may be the biggest protest in Serbian history. All demanding the resignation of President Vučić & his government. What began as a student protest is now a full democratic uprising. 🇷🇸

Blown away by this erudite book by @valentimvicente.bsky.social 🤯 An exceptional combination of theoretical sophistication and empirical breadth and depth. His theory of normalization not just helps explain recent rise of far right but also warns for overestimating strength of democracy.

How should Europe structure its response to the threats coming from the White House and elsewhere? Together with @marcobuti.bsky.social, Roel Beetsma & Kalin Jansve, we developed a plan @bruegel.bsky.social ⤵️ www.bruegel.org/analysis/thi...

State building literature has a lot to say about this moment. 👇🏼
