🤖 Will AI replace our jobs? And if so, what should governments do about it? In our new blog post, @julianachueri.bsky.social explores how workers across 27 countries perceive the growing impact of AI on work and which policy responses they support. (1/3)

4/4: When do citizens accept political violence? We use a survey experiment in Germany to test if partisanship or prosocial cues weaken anti-violence norms. Good news: Norms are robust. Bad news: Those with "need for chaos" reject violence less. @conradziller.bsky.social Panel C9, Fri 14:00 👇

Join today's panel C9 "Support for Democracy" (14:00) at #Dreiländertagung (Room 2.05)! Looking forward to exciting presentations by my co-panelists. I'll present joint work with @conradziller.bsky.social on who accepts political violence in Germany. #3LT2026

See these papers in Panels D11 (Thu, 16:00) & C9 (Fri, 14:00)! I am on the job market and would love to connect in Friedrichshafen. Let's grab a coffee to talk research ideas, future projects, or potential collaborations. Get in touch! ☕️ #3LT26 #Dreiländertagung @dvpw.bsky.social @oegpw.bsky.social

And if you stick around until the end (which you should), you can catch our session on "Strategic communication on social media" where I will present the @gesis.org BTW 25 candidate social media account collection done together with @msaeltzer.bsky.social @vigneshwaran-s.bsky.social and others.

If you are at the @dvpw.bsky.social #Dreiländertagung getting up early tomorrow is worth it to come to the panel on "Science, Research, and Methods" which I have the pleasure of chairing where @markus-gastinger.eu, @paulbederke.bsky.social, @dielea.bsky.social and others will present exciting work.

Arrived in Friedrichshafen for the #Dreiländertagung First impression: 10/10 conference location! #3LT2026

Join today's panel D11 (16:00) at #Dreiländertagung! I'll present several papers, tackling the questions: - How do citizens define "Political Solidarity"? - What explains Political Solidarity in Europe? - How do poor public services or corruption affect Political Solidarity? #3LT2026

2/4: What explains Political Solidarity in Europe? 2026 data (8k citizens, 7 countries) shows ideology & state legitimacy matter most, subjective perceptions more than objective conditions. @emppolitikwiss.bsky.social @chapkovski.bsky.social @pckemper.bsky.social Panel D11, Thu 16:00 👇 #POLITSOLID

🆕 Rising rents – rising dissatisfaction 💸 🏠️ @hummlerteresa.bsky.social highlights the impact of high rental prices on the political satisfaction of renters, using survey data collected across 40 neighbourhoods in 10 major German cities

Antrittsvorlesung der Jülicher Professur Digitale Sozialwissenschaften 📢👨‍🎓💻 Die Zahlen sind immer größer geworden, von 30 Studierende im Labor … zu 3 Millionen Datenpunkten im Webcheck.“ @johannesbreuer.com erklärt, was er unter digitale Sozialwissenschaften versteht und warum sie cool sind.

🚨New paper out in @epsrjournal.bsky.social! I examine how high rental prices influence local political satisfaction in German cities. 🔎🏢 doi.org/10.1017/S175... For a preview of the results check the 🧵below👇:

I see a diff-in-diff paper looming on the horizon.

i share this blogpost with extra joy: Paul Gies was a very talented member of our python course (co-taught with @jeicheler.bsky.social, @paulvierus.bsky.social & Jonas Elis) and used his skills and never-ending stamina to built a "Mensabot" (cafeteria bot) that to this day sends us the daily menu. 😍

So wichtig. Und das habe ich mich schon länger gefragt: Warum ersetzt die Wissenschaft die Verlage bisher nicht großflächig durch solche öffentliche Infrastruktur?

📢Neuer Blogbeitrag online! Warum verändert sich Europäische Solidarität – und was treibt sie wirklich an? 🇪🇺🤔
Europäische Solidarität gilt als zentral für den #Zusammenhalt in der #EU. Doch bisherige Studien zeigen nicht, wie und warum sich die #Solidarität über die Zeit verändert. (1/2)

New paper out with @antonialang.bsky.social in @electoralstudies.bsky.social 📣 Why is support for the Alternative for Germany often high in low-diversity rural areas, while ethnically diverse cities show mixed patterns? Link: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The special issue of @cpsjournal.bsky.social “Back from the Brink: Countering Illiberalism in Liberal Democracies”, co-edited by myself and Isabela Mares, was just published.

Wahlforschung zum Mitdenken: Gestern haben Prof. Dr. Achim Goerres und Manuel Diaz Garcia, M.A. in Duisburg aus ihrer Forschung über Wahlen erzählt. Der interaktive Vortrag ist ein gemeinsames Projekt der UB und @emppolitikwiss.bsky.social. Danke an alle Teilnehmenden für den gelungenen Austausch! 🤝

Just Published 📢 How stable is European solidarity—and what drives change over time? Using German panel data, @jeicheler.bsky.social shows that despite major crises like COVID-19 and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, a substantial share of individuals maintain stable levels of European #solidarity.

Can someone recommend an alternative to Google Calendar? A team needs to be able to edit a shared calendar, and all team members need to be able to make their personal calendars available to others (for reading). Ideally with both browser and app interface #DigitalIndependenceDay

Warum meiden wir Meinungen, die unseren Ansichten widersprechen? 🤔 Der Austausch unterschiedlicher Perspektiven ist zentral für eine funktionierende #demokratie. Trotzdem ziehen wir uns oft zurück und meiden sogar den Kontakt, wenn unser Gegenüber andere politische Meinungen vertritt. (1/3)

New paper this week by V-Dem's director, @silindberg.bsky.social, on the the current wave of autocratization: www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1... Including this important statement: "...it is by my own analysis no question that the USA no longer qualifies as a democracy."

Ten years ago, Giulio Regeni, an Italian PhD researcher at the University of Cambridge, was brutally murdered in Egypt while conducting fieldwork. Italian prosecutors have charged four security officials, but Egypt has refused to cooperate: no one has been held accountable for this crime.

What an amazing idea! Just tried it and already learned a lot about new interesting research - highly recommended!

Studienzeit - Fadenzeit. Erst gilt das angesichts der historischen Bedeutung des heutigen Tages, denn heute vor genau 53 Jahren fand die erste vorgezogene Bundestagswahl EVER statt. Noch dazu waren erstmals auch 18-, 19- u 20-Jährige dabei. Grund genug für eine Jugendwahlstudie zur BTW25.
