🏆 Mosher & Mosher Award — Best Article by an Academic

Congratulations to Vogel, R., Vogel, D., Liegat, M. C., & Hensel, D. on winning the 2025 Mosher & Mosher Award for their Public Administration Review article "From Social Categorization to Implicit Citizenship Theories"!

Great paper and very happy to see it finally published, congrats!

And I totally agree with the message. While you focus on economics in this paper, the message obviously holds true for related work in other research fields, namely sociology, general management studies, criminology etc.

And true with the in fashion again. Though, my band shirts didn't survive this long. Now, I would look like a poser wearing new ones
