How well are young people represented along the recruitment ladder? The pipeline problem for the Danish youth is within parties, since they are eager to stand for election and well represented at the parliamentary level. New article out in @ecpr.bsky.social's EPS. Open access: rdcu.be/eIiM1.

Open access to report on 2024 in Danish politics: Queen abdicated. EP elections returned a fragmented Danish representation in Brussels. The cross-the-aisle-majority gov saw some program realization, cf. initiatives on stronger defense, conscription for women & ‘Green Partite’ deal #polisky #dkpol

👸 2024 saw the Queen's abdication, political fragmentation in the EP, defence and climate initiatives, new ministries, and preparations for Denmark's 2025 EU chairmanship amid global challenges, writes @karinakosped.bsky.social

Nyt studie identificerer en specifik gruppe vælgere, der på SoMe kun følger det parti, de stemmer på. De ligner partiets vælgere mere end medlemmerne og er aktive online, men er ikke aktive i traditionelle partiaktiviteter. Potentiale for partier i forandring? #dkpol

SoMe-aktivister ligger tættere på vælgerne end partiernes medlemmer
Sociale medier tiltrækker en bredere og mere mangfoldig gruppe af politisk engagerede borgere end de traditionelle partimedlemmer. Det viser en ny undersøgelse fra Københavns Universitet.

To everyone who wonder why I just followed them: Together with @mkeyoung.bsky.social I'm researching how professional networks form on social media. I might follow or unfollow a large number of users from time to time. Feel free to follow back; will post updates on the project.
