Ny forskarantologi från SOM-institutet! Läs kapitlet av @NazitaLajevardi, Kåre Vernby och mig där vi visar på bristande medvetenhet om att vissa grupper är underrepresenterade i svensk politik. Samma grupper förväntas vara mindre välkomna bland politiker: gu.se/sites/default/…
Speaking of opposition. In a new #ParliamentaryAffairs piece Christer Karlsson , Moa Mårtensson and I compare plenary and committee behaviour in five national parliaments, including UK House of Commons and Deutscher Bundestag 👇 academic.oup.com/pa/advance-art…
In this new article, Thomas Persson, Moa Mårtensson & I find that while MPs in all legislatures express more opposition in the plenary than the committee, the propensity for oppositional behavior is more pronounced in “debating” than “working” parliaments. doi.org/10.1093/pa/gsa…
My department Department of Government, Uppsala University just published a denunciation of the Iranian regime's violence & oppression against the student protests in Iran. We demand that security forces leave the universities & release all arrested students immediately. See our website: statsvet.uu.se.
How do institutional factors and party characteristics shape parliamentary opposition in EU politics? In a new paper by Christer Karlsson Felix Lehmann Moa Mårtensson and myself we use data from five countries to explore this. Now on early view in JEPP tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
Happy to see this paper out in JEPP: Greater institutional reciprocity in national social protection systems is associated with lower opposition to EU labour immigration among economically vulnerable groups Moa Mårtensson Marcus Österman Migration Policy Centre tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
Great to see JEPP promote my latest article (co-authored with Thomas Persson Christer Karlsson, and Moa Mårtensson) in which we argue that both institutional factors and party characteristics drive parliamentary opposition to the EU on their blog: jepp-online.com/2023/02/driver…
In our new JCMS's article Moa Mårtensson, Thomas Persson & I examine whether oppositional behavior in #EU affairs is gendered. We find female MPs match opposition levels of male MPs, except in government parties where the gender gap widens. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
Our new WEP Journal article unveils that oppositional behavior in EU affairs is driven by two parallel dynamics: the distance between a party and elite actors on the EU dimension, as well as the distance between a party and voters & supporters on the classic left-right dimension.

Racial and ethnic minorities are underrepresented in politics. In this new article in British Jnl Poli Sci, Kåre Vernby, @NazitaLajevardi and I investigate one potential cause: expected discrimination. We find that minorities in both the US and Sweden expect to feel less welcome in politics.
