Overview of the transition across Europe

Here’s a look at how different European countries are progressing.

I’ve also included 🇹🇷 Türkiye for comparison — its BEV share so far in 2025 is 16.9%, higher than the 🇪🇺 EU-27 average but lower than the wider EU + EFTA + UK region (31 countries).

🌡️ When the policymaking thermostat breaks

Marcello Carammiaa and Stefano M. Iacus show that Italy’s migration policy normally follows a thermostatic dynamic. But during the migration crisis, the system overheated, and feedback loops collapsed 👇

Today, the partners of the Coalition of the Willing convened to discuss ongoing negotiations toward a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.

In recent days and hours, we have seen solid and encouraging progress.

We welcomed the presence of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio during our call.

Word of the Day: Stagflation. So "stag-" is stagnation. That's when the economy slows, sometimes when it goes backward... there's roughly a 1 in 3 chance of a recession over the next year... "-flation" is inflation., and inflation currently has remained stubbornly high"

A rising tide should lift all boats (not just the yachts).

Since the late 70s, policy choices have led to the bigger boats getting lifted while the rest of us feel like we're sinking.

It calls on EU countries to prioritise education and skills in strategic sectors, and to reverse the negative trend in basic skills.

Here's my monthly Q&A for Strength In Numbers readers. This time, I answer questions like:

- How do your polling average models work?
- What would ranked-choice voting in POTUS primaries look like?
- How do you isolate your priors from your data work?

What if America used ranked-choice voting for presidential primaries?
Plus: an update on non-voters; the secret sauce behind my polling models; and updating my list of political biases and how I account for them. This is the Strength In Numbers November 2025 Q&A.
