An extremely interesting experimental study on how the mismatch of personal characteristics of immigrants with the ingroup and civic and cultural European identity explain immigration attitudes

An interesting paper on the role of individual socio-economic status in driving anti-immigrant attitudes adding ethnic group position into the picture. Worth reading! It’s a pity though that the authors have excluded post-communist countries from their analyses!

The paper on Russian miltitary fatalities has now been published in Demography. Our estimate for 2022-23 is about 60,000 killed. This is the lower bound based on official Russian mortality statistics, but it's probably closer to the true number than much higher estimates from 'intelligence sources'
“War Fatalities in Russia in 2022-2023”: D. Kobak (@hippopedoid.bsky.social), @alexeyb.bsky.social et al. used official statistics & the excess male mortality method to estimate 58,500 Russian deaths in the Russo-Ukrainian war. @hertie-ai.bsky.social @exeter.ac.uk read.dukeupress.edu/demography/a...
