#Crypto began as an anti-state, anti-credit project. Now it's an integral part of the state-backed credit system - just think of Trump’s 'Bitcoin Reserve'. How and why did this happen? Find answers in our new open-access article in @ripejournal.bsky.social: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

🚨New paper out in @cpsjournal.bsky.social with Torben Iversen: doi.org/10.1177/0010... We empirically separate economic factors from cultural backlash as competing explanations for right-wing populism, and find evidence for the former. We define the concept of “unfunded public goods.” 🧵

The fiscal breakthrough in Germany is setting a clear direction: Military deficit spending has priority above everything else, the only budget with no limit. The defence spending goal dwarfs the deficit spending available for climate.

The real short to medium term constraint on serious rearmament is industrial rather than financial. Finding the money is relatively straightforward. Spending it is harder.

Until recently, policymakers still pretended to care abt climate (in EU, still?😱🫠). Looking at public investment, I ask: Do they really? Why may they prioritize other objectives? With what effects?
