Research from CGU graduate Dr. Soha Hammam along with @chenoweth.bsky.social and @djpressman.bsky.social showing US protest activity is widespread at the moment
@djpressman.bsky.social, Soha Hammam, and I draw on our research through the Crowd Counting Consortium to show that there is far more protest happening in the US than is commonly understood, and that the shift to economic noncooperation shows powerful potential for future collective action.
Resistance is alive and well in the United States
Protests of Trump may not look like the mass marches in 2017, but they're far more numerous and frequent — and also becoming more strategic.

Happy to share my article with Dong Wook Lee and Hillel Soifer on the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem, and what to do about it, published today in Political Analysis. If your research uses aggregated geographic units, this paper can help avoid threats to inference. doi.org/10.1017/pan....

Thrilled to see our article open access at Studies in Comparative International Development. We show that democracy reduces lifespan inequalities disproportionately for men, via reductions in injuries and accidents. link.springer.com/article/10.1...
