On my way back from my first ever @comptext.bsky.social conference. Can't believe I left it so long. The field is moving so fast and I'm already looking forward to next year. Thanks so much to the organizers of #COMPTEXT2026 (that Joseph Chamberlain Clock Tower is a beaut!)

🚨 New(ish) Publication Alert! Delighted to see my article Credit Claiming in the EU @thejop.bsky.social I explore a classic question for accountability in Europe: when and why do govs claim credit for the work of the EU and shift blame onto Brussels to avoid responsibility? doi.org/10.1086/732970

(1/5) My article Disintegration and Party Competition is out in the latest issue of @jeppjournal.bsky.social ! I ask how parties in other member states reacted to #Brexit. Do #Eurosceptic challengers frame it as an example to follow? Or do they instead row back on ‘hard’ demands to #leave the EU?

DISINTEGRATION publication #7 @giorgiomalet.bsky.social shows that French rejection of the EU constitution in the 2005 referendum increased public opposition to the Constitution abroad, an example of cross-national social influence. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Important paper from @stefwalter.bsky.social and the @disintegrationerc.bsky.social project: the backlash against globalisation is less about large shifts in public opinion, more about political entrepreneurs mobilising the issue.
