@eljorobado.bsky.social and I have a new book w/ @universitypress.cambridge.org on affective and instrumental attitudes toward fascism in Italy and France. A useful tool ahead of the 2027 national elections in both countries featuring highly relevant far right contestants. @ceudeminst.bsky.social

In this paper we use data from Argentina to contribute to the debate about the dangers of polarisation. We explore if partisans rely on regime stereotypes to stigmatise rivals; are more emotional in victory/defeat; and display conditional democratic commitments journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Review of Democracy @revdem2020.bsky.social · 13/11/2025
✍️ Peru’s democracy is eroding not through aspiring autocrats but through exhaustion. Entrenched informality hollows out authority and turns governance into a marketplace of deals rather than a system of rules, @eljorobado.bsky.social argues in his op-ed. 🇵🇪🇵🇪 🧑‍💻 Read it now: 👉 tinyurl.com/3hdcnjjb

¿Cuál es la funcionalidad de nuestra polarización ? “Tengo la impresión de que la disincronía entre la polarización de las élites con la polarización de la sociedad va a generar, tarde o temprano, un caso paradójico de contrapolarización” elcomercio.pe/opinion/colu...

Contrapolarización
“Las élites políticas insisten en el enfrentamiento y las tácticas son las mismas, pues se trata de estigmatizar al otro como corrupto o antidemocrático”.

Why did Chileans vote against a new constitution in the 2022 referendum? What is the text or the context? Leveraging a conjoint experiment and vote-choice models based on original f2f survey data, this article finds that second-order preferences ruled the day.
