Several years of data collection, 2 editorial teams and a few rounds of R&R were all well worth it to finally see this paper in print. Thanks to all the survey teams and the many experts who helped make this possible. doi.org/10.1086/736578

What a great collection. It’s a real honor for our (@rbakker.bsky.social & @jonathanpolk.bsky.social) paper on multidimensional incongruence and political disaffection to be included alongside some modern classics!
