We've also a vignette experiment where we test whether a simple intervention can decrease support for violence: encouraging people to consider politicians' perspective and reminding them about the importance of pluralism. It does for the most pervasive form of violence

Conjoint shows that support is lower when the politician is a woman (fits stereotypical views), but partisanship don't. Negative correlation disappears when controlling for individual variables. The profile of violent citizens are low-educated young men who dislike all parties

Similar to other studies using these types of survey questions, we find that people don't support the most extreme forms of violence (physical assault), but they do support "milder" forms like online insult. Though, overall support is rather low, no more than 10% support.

New WP on political violence in democracies with the fantastic @dianebolet.bsky.social and @bjarneck.bsky.social. Sadly very topical, but with some positive results

Avec les enquêtes CEVIPOF, nous quantifions le vote stratégique aux législatives 2024.

👉 Il y en a plus au 2nd tour, quand le choix est restreint.
👉 Mais même au 1er tour, 7-8% ont voté utile plutôt que pour leur parti préféré.

C’est comparable aux scrutins à un tour britanniques ou canadiens.

Très heureux de voir notre article publié dans la Revue Française de Science Politique, en collaboration avec @jfdaoust.bsky.social, toujours aussi brillant ✨

Après avoir beaucoup travaillé sur le vote utile, aussi appelé vote stratégique, nous testons nos méthodes sur le cas français.

Kicking off the @sciencespo.bsky.social @ox.ac.uk @iast.fr workshop in political economy. This year at beautiful Nuffield College in Oxford

We continue with Oliver Rittmann on electoral reform in Germany

Big crowd for the presentation of @ariray.bsky.social

We’ve water and AC in the room. And great presentations ! Do join us

🚨EPSA alert 🚨 @priera.bsky.social and I are organizing a pre-EPSA conference on political institutions on Wed 25 June. Same location as EPSA - Room 0.A.04. We've an amazing line-up of fantastic junior colleagues matched with more senior discussants. All EPSA attendees can attend and are welcome

Today, I defended my habilitation in Paris. This is one for these peculiar national survivances that exist in many countries, but that we hardly talk about in globalized academia. Going through these hoops is nonetheless
an important part of any academic career for
many of us

We asked LLMs and experts to position French parties during the 2024 EU campaign. The two are close for "major" dimensions and issues (left-right, immigration, EU integration). Not so much for specific ones (free market, refugees, rural/urban) or party characteristics like internal division.

For those interested in the evolution of support for democracy over time: doi.org/10.1093/poq/... (open access). The estimations is based on WVS data with some “reversed MrP” to fill the country and year gaps.

With C. Anderson and A. Ananda.

But all this is anecdotal. The real thing is this, the people. I’ve met wonderful friends that I’m going to miss terribly. Part of each of them will always be with me.

The social aspect of work is key. I wouldn’t have achieved half of what I’ve achieved without them.

Hanging up the gloves…

After 8 years at @Kingspol_econ @KingsQPE, it’s time to say goodbye. These years have been absolutely amazing, both professionally and personally.

I couldn’t dream of a better place to start my career.
