In 2023, almost all communal conflicts (95%) occurred in civil war contexts. Sebastian van Baalen and I explain why this matters in our new blog ⬇️ UCDP CSS at ETH Zurich

Violent conflicts over land & resources happen almost exclusively in civil war-affected areas. Claudia Wiehler & Sebastian van Baalen argue peacebuilders must involve civil war parties in conflict resolution — and even see them as potential conflict management partners

♟ #AutocraciesWithAdjectives No.28
Recent military coups in the #Sahel have benefited Russia. Marcel Plichta & Christopher Faulkner argue that Moscow's mercenaries are not to blame for the democratic retrenchment, but they are emboldening military dictators

80🔮 #FutureOfPopulism by Andrea Ceron Silvia Decadri & Fedra Negri.
'Followers of more populist parties like Lega, M5S, and FdI prove more receptive, yet followers of more conventional parties like the Partito Democratico are not immune to the charms of populist rhetoric.'

🔮 #FutureOfPopulism No.80
Andrea Ceron Silvia Decadri & Fedra Negri highlight how Italian politicians use populist rhetoric to generate social media engagement. Such rhetoric increases the likelihood of posts going viral, even among non-populist voters

Bohyun Kim The Loop. A Political Science Blog from @ECPR Many thanks!
It took #EU 50 years to create a directly elected Parliament, introduce EU citizenship, proclaim the Charter of Fundamental Rights & enshrine democratic principles in Lisbon Treaty. Next step must be to become a living European democracy!
Best, Jaap

❌ #CompulsoryVoting boosts turnout, but may increase invalid voting. It also gives voters few opportunities to express discontent or disinterest
🗳️Shane Singh Carolina Plescia & Sylvia Kritzinger argue that a #NoneOfTheAbove option could solve this problem shorturl.at/jpyMT

🇪🇺 Veronica Anghel & @EJ_Europe redefine the EU as a system of common resource pools. This is the only way to understand its transformation under pressure to enlarge. Enlargement means less exclusivity, so how will the ‘goods’ that the EU provides be affected?
