Great to be in Padua @unipd.bsky.social for a lecture in the MA European & Global Studies to discuss the global governance of citizenship and its challenges. Thanks Paolo Graziano for the invite!
And what a treat to see Giotto’s spectacular frescoes afterwards.

Good to see that @bruegel.org now corrected the labels in this plot. But not very classy to just delete the original post and ignore a friendly comment pointing out a possible error. That's not how we (should) do things here @bsky.app. People make errors so just acknowledge and correct.

Zojuist reactie ingediend bij de internetconsultatie voor zeer problematische wetsvoorstel om de verblijfstermijn voor naturalisatie te verlengen van vijf naar tien (!) jaar.
Hopelijk verdwijnt dit in de prullenbak zodra er een nieuwe regering is. Bij deze argumenten daarvoor.

I just sent off my voting ballot for the upcoming general elections in the Netherlands 🇳🇱.
Did you know that while there must be 100 thousands of Dutch citizens abroad, surprisingly few of those are voting. In the 2023 elections, about 70k of us voted from abroad. That’s one (1!) seat in parliament.

In our paper, we leverage a staggered diff-in-diff model and administrative data on complete migrant populations in Sweden and NL to identify the effect of dual citizenship acceptance on immigrants’ propensity to naturalize.
