🇨🇱 Hoy se celebra la primera vuelta de la elección presidencial en Chile. Una elección marcada por el aumento de apoyo a la ultraderecha y por el voto obligatorio, la gran incógnita de hoy. Sobre ello escribí esta semana en @elsaltodiario.com

In @nytopinion

“For institutions tied to the Emirates, choosing to act” or speak out about the genocide in Sudan “would have an economic cost,” write three experts in global human rights. “Yet the cost of silence, of continuing business as usual, is infinitely greater.”
Opinion | Sudan Is in Free Fall
The slaughter in Darfur could potentially be stopped, if those with leverage chose to act.

Esto es una vergüenza
Alemania tiene la llave de lo que pueda hacer Europa ante la guerra y la hambruna en Gaza. Pero hasta ahora se ha resistido a sumarse a las iniciativas de otros países para aumentar la presión sobre el primer ministro israelí social.elpais.com/6vqwh5
Alemania se convierte en el mayor freno para que la UE sancione a Israel
El canciller Merz, pese a endurecer las críticas a Netanyahu hasta un nivel insólito en Berlín, descarta por ahora reconocer el Estado palestino como han hecho Francia y el Reino Unido

This is a really important paper in the debate about optimal Social Democratic party strategies and the type of policy positions that are needed to deliver a "progressive majority". A must read!
New article out in World Politcs. We analyze how different groups react to varying programs of social democratic parties. We find less trade-offs than often assumed. Generally, more left-progressive programs increase support among social democratic potentials

I really liked this empirically-based twist in the narrative, specially as a political opportunity for left-wing parties.
From Bluesky to the Guardian!

In my new op-Ed, I argue that the “male glaze” of media and politics is empirically, normative, and politically wrong and that progressives should focus more on the left turn of young women.
The real story isn’t young men supposedly voting far right. It’s what young women are up to | Cas Mudde
There is an opportunity staring centre-left parties in the face – if they reject the male gaze distorting our politics, says political scientist Cas Mudde
