This is amazing!
The Ruhrgebiet, once Europe’s largest industrial region, mined coal from the 13th century. By 1956 it employed almost half a million people, but within two decades the workforce had shrunk by two thirds. The last mine closed in 2018.

It is with profound sadness I heard that my long-time friend and colleague, John Fox passed away this week.
He was the author of {car}, {effects}, {Rcmdr}, ... and numerous influential books. I will miss him greatly.

New meta-analysis by @swebera.bsky.social, Nik Stoop, Peter van der Windt & Haoyu Zhai on attitudes toward migrants and displaced persons (based on 118 survey experiments with ~423k respondents). Saw the pre-print a while ago – great to see it in print 🔓

It's quite absurd that there is no funding to keep ParlGov updated: this is essential data infrastructure for political science! No funder is interested in keeping the data backbone of comparative politics alive, while millions get spent on all kinds of BS. Ridiculous!
Just learned that Holger Döring retired from ParlGov in October.

If I'm not misreading his message, then this great resource will not be updated anymore 🖤

Our study on public immigration misperceptions is out! Prior research overstated their prevalence due to flawed measurement. Our new approach separates real misperceptions from uninformed guessing — showing they’re less common than widely assumed and ideologically motivated.

Gestern war ich zu Gast bei der WDR5-Sendung Politikum. Thema war der Einbezug von Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund in die #Bundeswehr. Ein Engagement bietet Chancen und besondere Risiken, aber auch hier sollten Repräsentationslücken offen diskutiert werden.
