Really cool application of the multi-dimensional dynamic Bayesian factor analysis model that @DevinCaughey, Tomoya Sasaki, and I have been working on to model democracy around the world. Very rough, beta version of the R package here: github.com/devincaughey/dbmm

Here’s my swan song for The Economist on the state of “democracy” globally. We apply a Bayesian factor analysis model from @cwarshaw & @DevinCaughey to data from V-Dem, @annemeng_, @anthlittle others and find 2 distinct components of decline v stability

How did the conflict in #Sudan start? And how do we stop it? @Kodouda and I analyze the context and possible solutions in this @ForeignAffairs piece. tl;dr - we shouldn't have trusted Sudan's military generals to shepherd our democratic transition, and shouldn't do so again

Why don't events like hurricanes and mass shootings get us on the same page about political topics like climate change and gun policy? 🌎 I found an answer to this question hidden among two million hours of talk radio recordings 📻--out now in POQ. academic.oup.com/poq/advance…
