New paper out in @jpeaceresearch.bsky.social! Here, I look at the non-linear relationship between levels of executive constraints and a country's risk of experiencing incumbent takeovers. academic.oup.com/jpr/advance-...

Delighted to share a short blog post on the dark logic of visual "strongman" propaganda — drawing on survey experiments in Venezuela, Türkiye and the US!

@vldjuve.bsky.social og jeg har skrevet litt om formelle og uformelle regler og institusjoner i møte med anti-demokratiske bevegelser. Nå er et godt todsptidspunkt for å ta en titt på deler av det norske systemet. klassekampen.no/artikkel/202...

Også vi må være på vakt
Det norske demokratiet er basert på uskrevne normer. I turbulente tider bør vi vurdere strengere regler.

In over 99.5 percent of protest events in April and May, we recorded no injuries, arrests, or property damage — an unprecedentedly tiny fraction for a movement of this size and geographic dispersion.

My team and I at the Crowd Counting Consortium (@djpressman@bsky.social, Soha Hammam, & Chris Shay) have a new piece out: wagingnonviolence.org/2025/06/amer.... In it, we show that through May 2025, the size and scale of anti-Trump protests have dwarfed those in 2017. 🧵
A line chart with a blue line showing a large growth of protest events from Jan 20 - May 31, 2025, and a green line showing the relatively modest growth of protest events during the same period in 2017.

Jeg lurer på hva som er en bedre grunn enn dette til å ikke syns at stemmeplikt er så viktig likevel. Siden hun har over 60% fravær over alle voteringer.

1/3 A central question in institutional political science is, who governs? A central question in political sociology is, which social groups govern? In a new @bjpols.bsky.social , @chknutsen.bsky.social , @sirianned.bsky.social , @magnusrasmussen.bsky.social take a novel approach to these questions.

Neither could it have been done w.o. a common template for identifying regimes and providing experts relevant information about time periods and regimes to code. The underlying HRD data are described here by @vldjuve.bsky.social , @torewig.bsky.social and me: journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1...

Very happy to share our new article in JoP @thejop.bsky.social, where we explore how parties forge links with social groups (here: social classes) through different appeals and how citizens respond to such appeals. www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/epdf/10....

Can citizen action translate into incumbents changing their regimes from within? @chknutsen.bsky.social and I find that the answer is yes in our latest piece, “Citizen Action and Elite Responses: Opposition Mass Movements and Regime Change From Within”, now out in JCR: doi.org/10.1177/0022...

Maria Corina Machado is in hiding. Although her movement won the election, Venezuela's dictatorial president has not left office. Still, she told me, she's an optimist: www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

We are asking Ukrainians to defeat the armies of Putin and Kim Jong Un. In their efforts to do so, Ukrainians helped bring down Assad. Ukrainian resistance is one of the most stunning military achievements in modern history.

On the fourth Sunday of advent we light a candle for peace ‘on this little earth.’ 2023 will not be peaceful, perhaps the least peaceful since WWii. Peace now! For Gaza, for Ukraine, for Sudan and for all the other overlooked, but not forgotten, places ‘where humans live’.
