🚨 🚨 🚨 new publication (with @antonialang.bsky.social) klaxon!!! Over the past decade, scholars have increasingly turned to “place” as a key factor in political behaviour — particularly on the far right, in Europe & the US. Urban-rural divides are especially intriguing. But are they true cleavages? 🤔

Es lohnt sich wirklich sich dieses Gespräch zu Fragen von Steuerpolitik und Steuergerechtigkeit anzuhören. Ein wie ich finde zentraler Punkt: Steuern sind nicht nur ein Mittel um Geld in die Staatskasse zu bekommen sondern ein Mittel der "Steuerung" für Umverteilung und gegen Akkumulation von Macht
