Looking forward to presenting at #EPSS2026 in Belfast this week! @klingelt.bsky.social and I hand-collected 10,000+ campaign posters in Berlin and use automated image analysis to study placement and content strategies across parties THU, 5:10–6:50pm, Brookfield (Hilton) @epssnet.bsky.social

Map showing the spatial distribution of campaign posters by party across electoral precincts in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Berlin. Nine panels display poster locations (dots) overlaid on precinct-level 2021 vote shares (shading) for: Die Linke (n=1,129), Die Grünen (n=1,459), SPD+JUSOS (n=693), CDU (n=639), AfD (n=107), FDP (n=348), Volt (n=780), and BSW (n=248). Each panel uses the party's color. Based on automated classification of 5,854 detected posters (conference version, ~50% of full corpus).

Tenured!! 🥳 This will probably take a while to feel real, but I am filled with gratitude to my colleagues, the external letter writers and committee members, students, friends, and family who supported me throughout this journey.

Excited to share that my project on polarization and nonviolent resistance was awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant. So grateful to the many colleagues who supported the work along the way, and looking forward to the research ahead!

Scholars have long paid attention to disproportionality between parties’ votes and seats emerging from the electoral system. In @sespjournal.bsky.social, Gianni Del Panta, @mattiaguidi.bsky.social, and I show that disproportionality can also be a by-product of pre-electoral coalition formation.🧵

🧵 As an academic whose formative college and graduate experiences took place during the 'modernists' vs. 'neo-primordialist' debates about nationalism, I find the causal ideological & methodological nationalism of even left-wing social media shocking.

(1) Are historical analogies effective as a persuasion tactic during foreign policy crises? Our new article in Security Studies finds that while exposure to analogies elicits an emotional reaction, it does not always translate into a shift in policy attitudes. 🧵: doi.org/10.1080/0963...

Guess what, my new book "The Art of Status" is out with @oxfordacademic.bsky.social 📚💃🎉 It's about looted art and international status competition - why some states decide to return and some don't. I explore in detail Parthenon Marbles, Benin Bronzes, and Nazi-looted art. More info/pics soon.

I learned so much from @rdassonneville.bsky.social's Voters Under Pressure, Tillman's Authoritarianism and the Evolution and Bartels's Democracy Erodes from the Top. In @comppol.bsky.social, I review each book on its own terms and draw out implications for the view that elections confer mandates. 🧵

Populists have arguably made political discourse more emotional, appealing to anger and fear. In a paper @wepsocial.bsky.social, @sricht.bsky.social, @loewnic.bsky.social, and I investigate whether voters have adapted and privilege their affective orientations as a yardstick when voting. Polisky 🧵
