Happy to see our study out! Our main takeaway is that while poor voters vote less often, are less ideologically aligned with their preferred party, and see their preferred party less often in government - voting still does not seem to explain unequal representation.

EPSA have announced that they will hold a conference in July 2026.
😵💫 We understand that there might be some confusion about EPSS and EPSA.
👉🏽 So we thought we would clarify some things.

Great to see this finally out! It's an interesting paper because we examine whether unequal representation is caused by how low- and high-income people vote (for example ideological voting). Our findings goes against this idea, meaning that unequal representation must be caused by something else!

Poor choices? Examining the electoral connection behind unequal policy representation

New working paper!
How do protesters' demographics and policy preferences affect politicians' responsiveness to their demands? I find no effects of shared demographics btw. protesters and politicians, but asymmetric responsiveness to left-right policy preferences: gupea.ub.gu.se/handle/2077/...

What is the core difference between ‘left’ and ‘right’ in politics?
New paper out in @ActaPolitica where I show that acceptance of inequality separates left- and right-wing individuals in both Eastern and Western Europe, contrary to previous research.
