Very pleased to see our paper in @journalqd. We think this is the most detailed picture to date of digital spending in US elections. I hope scholars will find out data helpful in their own work too. doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.…
New by @AdamSheingate, Scharf and Delahanty: "Digital Advertising in U.S. Federal Elections, 2004-2020." Using supervised ML on FEC data, the authors document the growth of digital spending in U.S. federal campaigns and persistent partisan gaps. 🧵 LINK: journalqd.org/article/view/3…

New @AgHistorySoc issue arrived w/the forum I put together, "Revisiting the 'Iron Triangle' of Agricultural History." I think it turned out really well! Thanks to @AdamSheingate, Sarah Phillips, @B_Classic, @ProfSecchi, Bill Winders and Anne Effland, and editor Bert Way.

James C. Scott’s Seminar in Agrarian Studies was a formative experience for me as a grad student. He rightly remembered as an influential scholar, but he was also a builder of intellectual community.
𝗝𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗖. 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 passed away on July 19. He was a political scientist and specialist in Southeast Asia. He was a dissident within Political Science. Yet his books opened up lines of research on central issues, such as the exercise of power and resistance to power.👇

Saddened by the passing of mentor and friend Sven Steinmo. His work set the standard for studying the United States in comparative perspective and, with Kathy Thelen, coined the term Historical Institutionalism to describe how institutional legacies structure politics and policy.
Very sorry to share the news of the passing of Sven Steinmo who was a great colleague and scholar @EUI_EU & @EUI_Schuman his work on historical institutionalism and later evolutionary approaches to institutions was an immense contribution. Sleep gently Sven RIP @SvenSteinmo

Current scholarship on political institutions in comparative politics, American political development, Historical Political Economy, or the American political economy project is impossible to imagine without the foundational work by Sven Steinmo.

Sven was also a keen analyst of fiscal policy (eg., the hugely influential Taxation and Democracy) and health policy (especially his 1995 article, "Its the Institutions, Stupid"). Sven showed us why studying public policy is essential to understanding politics.

I wrote about the history of US agricultural policy, the political coalition behind the Farm Bill cycle, and the failure to consider the most obvious form of “climate-smart” ag policy: converting millions of acres of commodity crops into new forests to capture and store carbon.
"Even if Democrats protect IRA funding, 'climate-smart' agriculture appears to mean pouring federal money into often dubious technological solutions designed to sustain the dominant productivist approach." NEW: @arielronid on the farm bill coalition. phenomenalworld.org/analysis…

Today is the equinox — day & night are equal and a new season has arrived. So here are some of the best (and most surprising) paintings of autumn... 1. Allegory of Autumn by Giuseppe Arcimboldo (1573)

A brief visit to see my mom in MKE and found this newspaper clipping reporting my grandfather’s liberation from a German POW camp in 1945. He was a practicing attorney before enlisting as a private at age 31.

Fond memories riding these back in the day.
Shorewood, Wisconsin — 56 years ago today The two carriages of the Atwater Park funicular — “Able Cable” and “Twinkle Toes” — make their way up and down from street level to the beach. The system was dismantled in 1987.
