So nice to see that our early piece (with Johannes Plagemann @giga-hamburg.de) on #populism and #foreignpolicy remains among the 5 most read and 5 most cited articles in Foreign Policy Analysis! @fpajrnl.bsky.social @ideopop.bsky.social @pwunifreiburg.bsky.social

Very relevant read for our #IDEoPOP network on the relationship between populism and regionalism. In this article, @dwajner.bsky.social explores how populists engage in regional cooperation. It was very interesting to read it!

Today we attended a lecture by #IDEoPOP PI Christian Lequesne on the political capture of foreign policy bureaucracies by populists. The lecture offered a very interesting empirical approach discussing different cases such as Poland or Brazil.

Today's #IDEoPOP lecture on images, role theory and leadership trait analysis provided us with very relevant analytical tools for the study of #populism and #foreignpolicy. Thank you @lesliewehner.bsky.social, PI of the network, for delivering this insightful lecture.

One of the challenges that #IDEoPOP researchers face is the classification of populism. This newly published project offers a very relevant categorisation of populist political parties in Europe. It will surely inspire our PIs and PhD candidates!
🌳 Thrilled to launch The PopulisTree — a new website covering decades of populism in Europe (both national and European elections) using a new taxonomy and dataset.

Looking forward to reading it!
