Over the past months, I had the chance to be a visiting fellow at nccr – on the move. I’m deeply grateful to my colleagues as well as to the faculty who helped me improving my project with their feedback. Neuchâtel has been an incredible place: a beautiful city and a community I’ll genuinely miss💫
Just arrived in Lucerne! 🏔️
Tomorrow I’ll be presenting my ongoing project on refugee-led political organizations at the PolSem Brown Bag Seminar (12:30–13:30, Room 3.B55). 💫

In Portuguese elections this week, we saw more evidence of the far-right's rise 🇵🇹🗳️
Is the far-right the go-to party for Europe's young men? 🤔
Two ✨FREE ACCESS✨papers can provide some answers

🚨 Despite major investment in migration research, its impact on policy remains limited—leaving room for ideology and misinformation to dominate.
📊 Based on 70+ interviews across 38 EU projects, we why research-policy collaboration is so hard to achieve.

New paper in @thejop.bsky.social with @bertous.bsky.social
We rely on a visual conjoint experiment, cross-sectional data, & panel data to show that affective polarization drives the normalisation of the far right among the centre-right 🇬🇧🇪🇸

Proud about this paper 🫶🏽
Among ‘cool’ things we do, we also
- measure class identity with social psych measures of in-group attachment
-show individual *&* aggregate descriptive rep. matters for symbolic rep.
-have cute & info-rich graphs

Our research shows that ending birthright citizenship "would cause serious harm…to the entire United States."
It is my honor to join with 95 other social scientists, all of us specialists in US immigration, in signing this new Amicus Curiae brief.

When you fire the humans and hand highly sensitive government functions to crappy A.I. tools—with zero transparency or accountability—expect chaos and harm.
So you admit, they pay taxes

A new study led by @mpc-eui.bsky.social shows that EU residents prefer policies that offer irregular migrants pathways to legal status.
The findings provide evidence that well-designed policies toward irregular migrants can gain public approval while upholding fundamental rights.

Linking public service deprivation to immigration rather than to cuts & administrative burdens is a POLITICAL CHOICE
My research shows that “immigrants cutting the cue" framing was key part of far right’s rise in Europe 👇🏽

Introduction to R for social scientists covering fundamentals, data wrangling, data analysis with statistical models, and data visualisation
Last week I completed another edition of my short introductory course to R for social science PhD students @fggaleiden.bsky.social. The course covers fundamentals, data wrangling, data analysis (stat models) and data visualisation. All the slides are freely available at dimiter.eu/R-tutorial.h....
Many people rightly point to the core role that mainstream right parties play for defending liberal democracy against the far-right threat. However, solely focusing on the centre-right ignores the errors that leftwing parties have committed that have empowered the far right. A few thoughts …
Trump signed a proclamation ordering Bondi to go after immigration lawyers last night. He is alleging that lawyers illegally coach immigrants in asylum cases. Investigations will extend as far back as 8 years ago to the start of his first term.

What explains asylum recognition rates? Utilizing a German refugee survey and a quasi-natural experiment in Germany, L. Gundacker, Y. Kosyakova, and G. Schneider show how regional political biases can influence an asylum seeker’s chance of obtaining protection.
