🚨 New(ish) Publication Alert! Delighted to see my article Credit Claiming in the EU @thejop.bsky.social I explore a classic question for accountability in Europe: when and why do govs claim credit for the work of the EU and shift blame onto Brussels to avoid responsibility? doi.org/10.1086/732970

(1/5) My article Disintegration and Party Competition is out in the latest issue of @jeppjournal.bsky.social ! I ask how parties in other member states reacted to #Brexit. Do #Eurosceptic challengers frame it as an example to follow? Or do they instead row back on ‘hard’ demands to #leave the EU?

(1/3) I am excited to be on 2 great panels at #EPSA in Madrid! On Thursday 26 June (09:30 - 11:10, Room 0A.06) I present joint work with @stefwalter.bsky.social on Parties and IOs on the panel ‘Text analysis in the Study of IR’ chaired by @andduer.bsky.social

DISINTEGRATION publication #7 @giorgiomalet.bsky.social shows that French rejection of the EU constitution in the 2005 referendum increased public opposition to the Constitution abroad, an example of cross-national social influence. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Important paper from @stefwalter.bsky.social and the @disintegrationerc.bsky.social project: the backlash against globalisation is less about large shifts in public opinion, more about political entrepreneurs mobilising the issue.

(1/8) Just published in @the-peio.bsky.social by @tommccraehunter.bsky.social and @stefwalter.bsky.social : We introduces IOParlspeech, a dataset of over 600,000 statements on 75 IOs in parliamentary debates (six countries: AT, CAN, DE, UK, USA, NZL) between 1990 and 2018. doi.org/10.1007/s115...
