The book is an invitation to draw on the actual usage of the term "democracy" to learn more about the opportunities to grow, strengthen and protect democratic practices. I'm proud to have been part of this initiative along with many thinkers whose work I have long admired.
A few years ago, Jean-Paul Gagnon started a series on @ecprtheloop.bsky.social about the importance of studying conceptions of democracy across time and place.
That discussion became a multi-authored book, The Sciences of the Democracies: discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10...

@profmusgrave.bsky.social would you mind adding me to Polisky? Thank you!
Once in a while, a department is lucky enough to welcome a stellar group of scholars discussing a theoretically and normatively important topic. Well, this week, our poli sci dept at Lund University has the privilege of doing so! Stoked to learn about the new frontiers of gender politics research!
Anyone on Polisky can now post to the PSJMInfo feed. Just use "PSJMInfo", "poliscijobs", "psjobs" or "💼" in your post.
I've started a list of PoliSky Sub-feeds. If you know of one (or started one) that should be added, please re-skeet the feed announcement and @profruback.bsky.social when you do. I'll add it ASAP.
