Excited to share my latest #OpenAccess publication!

I develop a theory on how courts can counter executive aggrandizement—even in unlikely contexts—offering a fresh perspective on #DemocraticResilience.

I welcome any feedback, reactions, or questions!

A serious question: how will comparative politics respond to the problem of under-powered research (see below)? I hope the the field will lean back into our strength (comparative case study) but I worry it will only tip toward big data.
