"Anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric has been a central element of the Georgian Dream’s anti-democratic turn towards the far right. How do anti-LGBTQ+ statements and policies help GD expand its grip on power, and why does this strategy work?" @tamtagelashvili.bsky.social on @boell.de

Glad to see the conversation about ethics in research on the far right evolving. This recent commentary on care ethics by Iris B. Segers, @tamtagelashvili.bsky.social and Audrey Gagnon is highly recommended.
Wish I had such solid reflection at hand when I started researching the far right years ago.

Cannot recommend this summer school highly enough!

Incidentally, you might be interested in checking out this forthcoming volume I and many other great authors have contributed to: manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/978152617387...

Finally online! This was a challenging paper to write, as the far right in 🇺🇦 has been so politicized by Russia. But for this same reason, it is maybe also the most important paper I have written, studying the actual movement to counter misconceptions around it:

🆕PUBLICATION ALERT
To what extent and how do terrorist attacks influence public debates? What are the differences between public debates after extreme right and Islamist terrorist attacks? Very happy to see my single-authored paper out

Paper acceptance is a good excuse for my very first post here, right? Overly excited that the second article of my PhD, “Political Opportunities and Mobilization on the Far Right in Ukraine,” will soon appear in East European Politics! 🥳
