🚨🚨 Accepted yesterday! 🚨🚨 @lenkabustikova.bsky.social and I introduce the concept of "Confessional Illiberalism" and distinguish it from two other forms of illiberalism, reactionary and prejudicial illiberalism. We also compare the concept to other '-isms' to tidy the backsliding literature.

The modern gender gap is alive & well in #Germany: women were more likely to support the parties on the left (SPD, Greens, and well, Left), less likely to support the Christian Democrats & Liberals, and massively less likely (17% vs 24%) to vote for the #farright #AfD #btw25

Turns out, young German women are more afraid of extreme right than immigrants. www.tagesschau.de/wahl/archiv/...

On Friday, I defended my PhD. Thank you to @manesweisskircher.bsky.social and @lenkabustikova.bsky.social for being excellent opponents, and to everyone who supported me throughout this PhD!
