Joan Romero dio clase a casi todas las promociones de Políticas en la @uv.es... menos a la mía, porque estaba de estancia. Siempre me dio rabia no haberle tenido como profesor, pues todos mis compañeros le admiraban. Y este gesto lo confirma una vez más.

If you're hoping to show students evidence to support your tech rules/interactive pedagogical approach, here's what I use. Decidedly not comprehensive, but makes the key points.

For young, entry-level workers, sharing rent with roommates is a rite of passage. But as living costs continue to rise and as homeownership becomes less achievable for young adults, older adults are making up a growing share of live-in landlords. trib.al/4jvD8Ox

Coincido. Mala noche para el PSOE, pero buena para Pedro Sánchez.
Hot take: Sánchez quiere que el PSOE se la pegue en Extremadura, Aragón y Andalucía, que el PP no consiga mayoría absoluta y que VOX entre en esos gobiernos autonómicos. Así, podría utilizar las burradas de VOX y sus peleas con el PP en su propia campaña electoral.

Cuidado con extrapolar los resultados de Extremadura a escala nacional. Extremadura es más envejecida, rural, tiene menor renta y un nivel educativo medio inferior al conjunto de España. Representa poco más del 2% de la población. #ExtremaduraDecide

New paper in @ajpseditor.bsky.social. Is descriptive representation good for substantive representation? Why do voters stay loyal to corrupt and poorly governing ethnic parties? I argue that we ought to focus less on patronage and more on dignity concerns. Defiant pride can come at a price. 1/🧵

I continue to sense that we as a field have concluded, either you have an identification strategy as defined here, or you don’t have a valid causal claim. And that is really not true.

La TV es principal medio para consumir información política. Análisis de informativos en España muestra que La Sexta y TVE están sesgados a la izquierda, y Tele5 y Antena3 a la derecha. Por ello cada cadena promueve noticias positivas de sus partidos y negativas de los otros.
