If you want to learn more about the Vatican‘s central role in this, you should read Ayoub and Stoeckl‘s new book on the global fight against LGBTI rights nyupress.org/978147982479...

The Vatican under Pope Francis was a driving force behind the movement against “gender ideology”. It has not only massively empowered anti-LGBTQ+ hostility but provided an essential building block for current gloabl far-right authoritarianism. It‘s infuriating to see the undifferentiated praise.

Norway is one of the world’s richest countries, but isn’t signing up for US President Donald Trump’s demand that NATO members increase their defense budgets to 5 percent of GDP.

The Godfather of the resurrection of the European far right has died. He defined the third wave and was marginalized by the fourth. A vain and nasty man, who will be missed by few.

Sempre puntuale il #factchecking di @pagellapolitica.it, che ne ha per tutti. Però, per parlare veramente di lavoro in Italia è inutile soffermarci ai dati aggregati. Senza considerare il divario territoriale, quello generazionale e quello di genere ogni diagnosi diventa carta straccia.

a chilling yet beautiful piece by Sophie Smith. I especially recommend men to read this. “Even as we learn to talk, we find that talk alone won’t stop the world from turning much as it did before” www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

collective reminder for 2025: let's not be THAT researcher.

Hi Polisky community We’re working on a new thesis template for one of our brand-new MA programs at UiB GOV. Since the final assignment is now just 30 ECTS, the thesis needs to be significantly shorter than before. Any good examples or templates from your departments that could help us out?

Super important experimental study by @lcjacobs89.bsky.social and @jbpilet.bsky.social showing that mainstream parties signaling willingness to govern with radical right legitimize these parties with higher propensity to vote for radical right as a result journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Appropriate 😅

Definitely the right moment to stop reading Politico and financing Springer.

Merry Christmas to all

It ys okaye if festivitye ys not thy thing. It ys okaye to be lonelye. It ys okaye to be sad. It ys okaye to have tinye plans that still seem exhausting. It ys okaye to just be. Be kynde to thyself. Be extra kynde. We are all straungeres heere doing our best. Thou art amazinge.

For those of us facing family gatherings around the dining table: between polite conversations and that problematic relative (we all have one, don't we), remember—you’re not alone. Let's embrace being "assigned to a difficult category and a category of difficulty" #Feministkilljoy Happy holidays!
