Every summer, parades in Northern Ireland bring tension. In our new study, we combine data on 55,000+ parades, surveys, & fieldwork to show how “contentious rituals” affect intergroup relations. All thanks to my amazing co-authors: Kit Rickard, Giovanni Hollenweger & @kristinmbakke.bsky.social

Friedrich Merz, the leader of the German CDU, just claimed in parliament that gang rapes are committed on a daily basis by asylum seekers in Germany. It is pure far right propaganda. The mainstreaming of the far right is happening on steroids in Germany right now.
