Den centrala frågan för Natomedlemskapet har alltid varit statsvetenskaplig: hur stark är försvarsalliansen när det kommer till kritan? Tyvärr ligger denna bortom den militärstrategiska kompetensen hos de militärer som har varit medias föredragna experter i frågan.

Jonas Gummesson: USA lär inte skicka en enda soldat till Sverige
För ett år sedan tog Ulf Kristersson emot jublet i Kapitolium över Sveriges medlemskap i Nato. Sedan dess har alliansens trovärdighet slagits i spillror.

Wiman frågar sig vad är det vi låter oss duperas av i dag. Ironiskt nog är det idén om att människor är enkla att dupera och vilseleda. Ett påstående som har ett mycket svagt stöd i forskningen -- men som kultursidorna dag efter dag insisterar på är sant.

Great move. Hopefully this will strengthen researchers' incentives to not only do eye-catching but credible research when going for the top journals.
APSR will start inviting replications for a random subset of accepted papers. I really like this as well as the constructive tone around it 👏 (from the latest Notes from the Editors)

The take: doing good research is expensive and therefore we should lower our standards is and will always be the weakest take. Also it is wrong.
Here's a provocative new paper

Happy and sad to announce that this is my final month as a full-time researcher in Aarhus as I am returning for a position as Senior Associate Lecturer (TT) at the University of Gothenburg.

More and more reports of violent spillovers from the Israeli-Palestinian conflict are coming in. My research together with Jakob Enlund shows that the conflict violence does indeed increase hate crimes against both Jews and Muslims in the US.
