New paper out in the EJPR! Coalition governments delegate international negotiations to single ministers, but their coalition partners are left on the sidelines. I look at when those outsiders use public dissent to constrain ministers.

🇪🇺How do coalition parties monitor EU policymaking without a seat at the table? ➡️Using committee & rapporteur data, @pitrieger.bsky.social finds that sidelined parties shadow coalition partners via EU Parliament committees, reducing information gaps www.cambridge.org/core/journal... #FirstView

🤩 Party positions in the 2024 European Parliament 🇪🇺! I merged the CHES expert survey with EP composition data to visualize the political space of the current EP. The graphs make the center of gravity in the EP quite clear, on multiple dimensions and policy issues. dimiter.shinyapps.io/ches/

Excited to share my first single-authored dissertation paper! I study how voters react to party differentiation in coalitions. Voters like clear partisan signals, but the gains are short-lived and limited to aligned supporters. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

🚨 New preprint: I investigate how voters react to partisan behavior in coalitions. The paper leverages an unexpected event from 2024, when Austria’s Green environment minister Gewessler backed an EU Nature Restoration Law against the will of her ÖVP coalition partner. osf.io/preprints/os...

Opening bsky to see if its usage has progressed enough to notice the Overleaf outage on my fyp. Disappointed, but I will be the change I want to see in the world. This is my day now:

Interesting graphic on the EP vote on the VdL2 Commission. Much smaller majority at the start than previous Commissions, and I expect the “VdL2.0 coalition” to erode quickly. (Nb. Will try to look at the RCV breakdown later):
