In light of the UK extreme-right (ER) riots & Tommy Robinson's role in them, our conditionally accepted @BJPolS paper w/@FlorianFoos shows a causal effect of media exposure to extreme right actors, incl. Robinson, on support for extreme right views: osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/ur… 1/11

This project is relevant in many countries, incl. France where the rise of far-right guests in traditional media might explain why 'perceptions of insecurity and crime' drove National Rally voters in the 2024 elections, as we discussed in @LeMonde lemonde.fr/economie/article/…. 10/11
Special thanks to @tabouchadi, @AngelisAndrea, @DanBischof, @ColomboFranc, @EliasDinas, @sarahobolt, @robjohns75, @adelineylo, and all conference/seminar participants for their feedback! Personal thanks to Florian for providing great mentorship. 11/11
Fantastic paper by @sachary_ and @sarahobolt that shows how the radical right positions itself as the adversarial party family that attracts many anti-climate voters across other parties. Scary with new right-leaning European Parliament weakening pro-climate coalition.

In an op-ed in today’s @guardian I examine where the success of the far right comes from. My main claim is that neither parties nor voters have fundamentally changed. Instead, they have been driven into each others’ arms. #thread 1/11

Is the backlash against representative democracy driven by MP-electorate (sociotropic) or individual-electorate (egocentric) mismatch? @MiriamSorace and I's latest paper in #EJPR finds support for direct democracy is mainly driven by egocentric incongruence. 1/8 #OA
🆕 When do we backlash against #RepresentativeDemocracy?
@MiriamSorace & @dianebolet conduct an experiment in 🇫🇷 to explore the effect of sociotropic & #egocentric incongruence on democratic preferences 🙋

Expertise-based justifications for representation failures don’t lessen the impact but increase opposition to representative democracy. Bad news for expert-seeking models: relying on technocratic advice favours direct democracy.7/8
