Very happy to see this out! Together with Abel Escribà-Folch @politiquesupf.bsky.social @ibei.org we explore whether foreign aid and FDI have opposing effects on dictators' personalism levels 🧵👇

@bernatpuertas.bsky.social & A. Escribà-Folch show there is no robust link between the two—only a limited effect on certain aspects of personalism www.cambridge.org/core/journal... #FirstView
