Lea Stallbaum @stallbaum.bsky.social · 18/03/2026And on the topic of the "Mainzer Republik" (see 2nd picture): Exactly 233 years ago today, the first democratic republic on German land was declared in Mainz! It only lasted for 125 days, but it's one of the reasons why we are celebrating the first ever Day of Democratic History in Germany today 010

Lea Stallbaum @stallbaum.bsky.social · 18/02/2026In our new paper in G&O, we show that US legislators have more people-centred process preferences, while German legislators are more balanced between people-centred and elite-centred preferences overall - but party affiliation matters.
