How does cooperation with radical right parties (RRP) influence voters? My paper in @EJPRjournal shows that voters adopt nativist attitudes when their parties cooperate with RRP, highlighting how such alliances can legitimize exclusionary policies. doi.org/10.1111/1475-6765.12…

🗳️Following the year of super-elections, listen to the new episode of FEPS Talks with Dr Gefjon Off @GefjonOff, who unpacks the emerging gender discrepancies in political attitudes and voting patterns! Interviewed by FEPS Policy Analyst on Democracy Matteo Dressler @MatteoDressler, the episode explores Dr. Gefjon Off's research on whether young men are truly gravitating to the right while young women are growing more progressive, and, if so, what these shifts mean for #Progressive policymakers as they chart a path forward.

How does women's marginality in parliament impact their advocacy for gender-related issues? Our new @BJPolS article examines this dynamic using data on Israeli legislators from 1977–2015, revealing insights into the interplay between individual & group marginalization.

On #25N, we should remember that every 10 min a woman loses her life to domestic violence (via @UN_Women). To eliminate violence against women, research calls for: 📜 Robust legislation 🛡️ Prevention policies 💪 Investment in women & grassroots level 📊 Better data collection

New article out with @DrBoulianne, Nicole Houle & Delphine Brown on the empowering potential of feminism for online political participation! We find that particularly those who experience grievances bc of unequal care work draw on a feminist identity as a mobilizing force! 👇

Important research! Even in couple households, parenthood increases women's individual poverty risk, and this depends on national family policy.

A lot has been said about gendered support for #Trump vs #Harris 🇺🇸, but behold this little gem from today's 🇩🇪 Politbarometer survey: women rate chancellor #Scholz slightly more favourable than his likely successor, whereas #Merz enjoys a 26 pt lead (!) amongst men in #Germany
