La triple peine d'être femme, universitaire & mère : « La maternité change la donne de manière frappante : le nombre de publications scientifiques signées par les mères chute alors de 31 %, montre l’étude. Aucun effet n’est en revanche constaté chez les pères, dont la productivité reste stable. »

Bravo Théodore for this great work. It’s been a pleasure seeing you develop your thesis and succeed in bringing together brilliantly two different approaches, demonstrating how they enrich each other and allow us to advance our understanding of the politics of policy. @theodoretallent.bsky.social

Woot! It was great to be part of this committee! Congratulations again to Dr @theodoretallent.bsky.social 🌟

Number 10 North is strategic, policy-wise, but I think it will probably be more important for its ‘symbolic politics’. Making voters in the north feel more represented because of a tangible, high profile political symbol. These symbols emphasised by @ffaucher.bsky.social.

Il y a qq jours, le directeur de l’OMS pour l’Europe rappelait que les canicules ont tué 200000 Européens ces quatre dernières années. « La plupart de ces morts étaient évitables », a souligné Hans Henri Kluge. www.who.int/europe/news/...

Last week I spoke to @euradio.bsky.social about the new EU Return Regulation and longer-term trends in externalizing migration and asylum policies in the EU. Listen here (in French): euradio.fr/emission/2Xq...

Futuro Nazionale is part of a broader trend that characterizes the fourth phase of the far right: the radicalization of the radical right. It is a logical response to the radicalization of the mainstream and the mainstreaming of the radical right. We see it in several countries (eg NL, UK).

Absolutely fascinating polling by @christabelcoops.bsky.social @thinklabour.bsky.social. Says a lot about the (mis)perceptions of voters - and the cues they use to evaluate the social background of politicians.

Yet total silence on the subject from key players - and guess what, all the key players were men. This excellent analysis of the male tilt of referendum media coverage, 'Three Men and a Vote' was published by researchers at Loughborough University: theconversation.com/three-men-an...

A whole 12% of voters think Brexit has been a success. And just 25% of Leave voters. Sigh.

Just had an editor for the first time suggest to my co-author and I that the use of em-dash suggested we had used AI in our writing. We had not - why are even simple joys of using a lovely little em-dash and several clauses, being stolen from us 😭😭

There’s the plainly farcical: a Trump arts centre is about as credible as Trump University. But then there are fear-inducing architectural gestures reminiscent of fascism: just as Hitler saw the Arc de Triomphe in Paris and decided he needed a much larger one himself, so Trump has been inspired...

"Nous basculons dans l'inconnu". OUI ! C'est ça qu'il faut dire au bulletin météo. Il y en a marre de la banalisation du changement climatique avec les marchands de glace et les surfeurs. Merci Sébastien Thomas ! 1/12

Great article on Burnham and manchesterism

Given my recent experiences seems worth saying again: Don‘t organize manels Don‘t make excuses for why your panel is a manel Don‘t try to persuade people to participate in your manel (using these excuses) Don‘t ask people who do not want to participate in your manel to suggest women for your manel

✒️Élections locales au Royaume-Uni : les résultats montrent que les fractures du Brexit sont encore vives, écrit @ffaucher.bsky.social dans @lemonde.fr. En particulier, l'échec des travaillistes doit les inviter à répondre aux inégalités territoriales, économiques et sociales.

Like many other European social democratic parties, Labour is moving right on immigration, certainly driven by the recent success of Reform. We have researched this question for years now. There is an abundance of evidence of why this isn't a good strategy. A thread summarizing some of our research

Thank you Isabelle for this enlightening update. Vraiment très intéressant qu’une telle réflexion soit entamée. @sciencespo-cee.bsky.social

Can France still be governed under its current electoral system? After almost two years of parliamentary fragmentation, the situation remains unsettled: huge frustration, no stable majority and a presidential election already casting its polarising shadow over parliamentary life.

Final curtain on the @ecpr.bsky.social workshop ‘Symbolic Repertoires in Politics and Policy’ co-led by our director @ffaucher.bsky.social and in which our PhD students Arno Lizet and @sagaokej.bsky.social took part. Thanks @sopouibk.bsky.social for hosting #ecprjs26 in such a beautiful setting!
