My book “The Normalization of the Radical Right” has recently come out in the US.
If you're interested, in this thread I’ll link different ways of learning about the book and its argument (I’ll keep adding if more come out).

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 wanted dinner recommendations so I scraped 13,000+ London restaurants and accidentally discovered Google Maps is running a shadow economy. Anyway here's a dashboard and a political economy thesis: open.substack.com/pub/laurenle...
How Google Maps quietly allocates survival across London’s restaurants - and how I built a dashboard to see through it
I wanted a dinner recommendation and got a research agenda instead. Using 13000+ restaurants, I rebuild its ratings with machine learning and map how algorithmic visibility actually distributes power.

Why is the #farright surging when attitudes haven't shifted that much in their favour? Normalisation and the subsequent erosion of political norms provide part of the answer, as @valentimvicente.bsky.social explains in this excellent episode of the (now sadly dormant) No Problem et al. #podcast
