Today is a good day to remind you that none of the classic vote studies thought very highly of women's political competence.

Was für eine Kampagne: Die Union – laut mit Spahn – traut sich tatsächlich auf einen Bericht des selbsternannten „Plagiatsjäger“ Stefan Weber zu verweisen, um den Druck kurz vor der Abstimmung auf die SPD zu erhöhen, BVerfGE-Nominierung Brosius-Gersdorf fallen zu lassen. Dafür steht Weber:
Tagesspiegel-Titel: „Vierstellige Summe von „Nius“ an Plagiatsjäger Reichelt-Portal bezahlte Gutachten über SZ-Vize Standard-Titel: „Weber wegen übler Nachrede rechtskräftig verurteilt" Spiegel-Titel: „Die Rache des Stefan Weber"

Very excited for my first #EPSA2025!
I’ll be presenting work on attitudes towards digitalisation in the EU on Saturday, 13:10 at the „Politics of New Technology“ panel. Looking forward to meeting many (new) people amidst Madrid‘s lovely summer vibes.

Spannende Analyse @netzpolitik.org. Interessant wird auch wie 1) ein Ex-Manager das Thema Verwaltungsdigitalisierung angehen wird & 2) ob von Erfahrungen anderer Ländern (z.B. Polen) oder BL (wie Bayern, Hessen), die bereits ein Digitalministerium haben, gelernt wird.

Wir haben uns den Zuschnitt des neuen Digitalministeriums angeschaut. Fazit: Die Kompetenzzersplitterung hat damit weitgehend ein Ende. Allerdings liegt der Fokus fast ausschließlich auf Wirtschaft, Staat und Innovation. Zivilgesellschaft und Gemeinwohl muss man mit der Lupe suchen.
Neues Digitalministerium: So will Schwarz-Rot das Land digitalisieren
Nun soll es endlich kommen: ein eigenständiges Digitalministerium. Das neue Ressort soll verschiedene Kompetenzen zusammenführen, die bislang verstreut waren. Was ändert sich damit, was bleibt gleich?...

There is again a media discussion on whether #TikTok drives parties’ popularity. This time: #dieLinke at the German election. Before the election, I wrote a blog arguing that we should not overemphasise hyped digital factors and instead embed them into broader political changes.

How should #Germany become more digital? As the #Bundestag elections approach, parties propose different digital policies, from a digital ministry to platform & #AI regulations. On our #DigitalSociety blog, @liciniaguttel.bsky.social compares key proposals.

Gedanken aufschreiben, wenn es eigentlich nichts mehr zu sagen gibt, wenn es unzählige male schon so aufgezeigt und ausformuliert wurde. Wenn die Fähigkeit und/oder die Bereitschaft offenbar einfach nicht besteht dieser fundamentalen Herausforderung für unsere Demokratie angemessen zu begegnen.

Seit Monaten hat sich die CDU/CSU rhetorisch und politisch radikalisiert. Bei jedem weiteren Schritt nach rechts wurde gehofft, damit eine Grenze erreicht zu haben. Am 29.01.2025 wurde durch Merz die Hand zum Faschismus ausgestreckt. Was für eine Schande für diese Partei, den Bundestag, Deutschland.

What does research tell us about how technology shaped election campaigns, debates and voter behaviour in 2024? Read the latest OII blog post from Licinia Güttel (@liciniaguttel.bsky.social) at the Oxford Internet Institute (@oiioxford.bsky.social), looking back at a major year for elections.

Which role did digital phenomena play in 2024, the year of elections?
Below, I summarise our commentaries on the impact of digital tech and elections in 🇺🇸🇪🇺🇮🇳🇬🇧🇮🇩🇿🇦🇲🇽🇷🇺 @oiioxford.bsky.social.
I argue that hypes and technological determinism come with the risk of overlooking broader political questions.

Hi Bluesky 🦋
I‘m Licinia and I’m a PhD candidate at @oiioxford.bsky.social where I research political parties‘ positions and public opinion on digitalisation, mostly in 🇪🇺🇩🇪🇫🇷🇬🇧.
I am also interested in how digital phenomena impact (or don’t) parties, voting, and elections.
Happy to connect!

It baffles me how many are writing things like „this is how *my niche interest* policy is going to look like“ or „Kamala Harris got *niche interest* wrong which is why Trump won“ on this day w/o mentioning what this victory means for PoC, particularly women, queer people, and democracy overall
