Measuring the Subnational Variance in State Presence
This article by @Gagneman @CappelenChris @KasperBrandt2 and @davsjob makes an interesting proposal to measure the uneven reach of the state, a key matter in the study of the state.

Can the police be trusted to punish criminals? Is it easy to get identity documents, and a primary school place?
Agneman et al aggregate @afrobarometer responses, then create a continent-wide model to predict state capacity.
This predicts services, eg vaccinations

How do civilians respond to violence? Using an experimental measure of rule compliance, I show that victimization triggers everyday resistance; victims are less likely to comply with armed groups' rules.

Kristdemokrater har vid flera tillfällen träffat bosättare och haft möten med högerextrema israeliska politiker. dn.se/sverige/trots-kritiken…

Ingen kan nu förneka att iDF idkar prickskytte på hungrande palestinier. 500 döda hittills vid matfördelningens dödsfällor.
Omvärlden måste lyfta huvudet ur sanden. Vad som sker i Gaza är ett av vår tids värsta o mest cyniska krigsbrott.
Eftervärldens frågor blir outhärdliga.

📡 "We can't improve what we can't measure." @bethnoveck writes on how @GAgneman and @NTNU_Economics researchers are using AI to map local governance effectiveness.
Could this help democracy builders target interventions where they're most needed?

Att Sveriges utrikesminister under pågående folkmord och bombningar av Gaza besöker Israel för att ”stärka samarbetet mellan länderna” är inte värdigt. Sverige frånsäger sig möjligheten att vara en del av fredsförhandlingar och en röst för folkrätten. Sverige kan bättre.

We use machine learning to predict subnational variation in state presence across SSA. Check it out!

Which we link to a range of spatially granular predictors of state presence, such as road network and travel time to the capital.

Apologies rank high on the transitional justice to-do list. But do they promote the reintegration of former combatants? @Strombomlisa @GAgneman and I tackle this question in this paper on Colombia in @JPR_journal @NTNU_Economics @pol_LU @CPolUniandes journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…
