An exceptional piece of scholarship by @pauliinapatana.bsky.social , which goes straight on my Qualitative Methods syllabus as it is a perfect example of the value of mixed methods research. It is also highly relevant for my own work on European politics and the far right. Bravo! 👏

Together with @jellekoedam.bsky.social, @tinepaulsen.bsky.social, and @nicolaiberk.bsky.social, we brought together an amazing group of researchers doing exciting work here in Zurich — and it turned into a super fun, engaging workshop. Huge thanks to everyone who joined and made it so special!
