How does coalition participation influence party membership?@hannaeback.bsky.social @michaelimre.bsky.social and I find that junior coalition partners lose more members than parties that govern alone, and an increasing ideol. diversity within the cabinet is related to a decreasing number of members.
I was having intense deja-vu when reading this, but check the date again (it is, of course, still a pity, ParlGov is/was a great resource)

Do interpersonal relations affect coalition bargaining? @hannaeback.bsky.social, @michaelimre.bsky.social and I argue that when the Prime Minister is replaced, the incumbency advantage of a coalition will be weakened because of reduced familiarity and trust journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... 1/2
Die Diskussion, ob div. verkehrspolitische Maßnahmen eher Wirtschafts- oder Gesellschaftspolitik sind, hätten wir als Podcast aufnehmen sollen :)
Danke an das gesamte @derstandard.at-Team für den Wahlkompass zur Wien-Wahl 2025: www.derstandard.at/story/300000...
and I read weird stuff about how they handle peer review in at some point in the past. Fully predatory? Probably not, personally still would not touch it...
They at least behave similar to predatory journals with the way they scrape conference programs and send spam (friend of mine was asked if he wanted to do a special issue on his research topic "University of Bergen, Norway" because they did it badly),
Blöde Frage, aber ich rätsle seit 5 Minuten - wenn das nur die 5 (aktuellen?) Parlamentsparteien sind (also kein BZÖ?), was sind die -~39%?
Evidenz für Verschiebungen seit September sehe ich auch nur sehr bedingt... die wenigen Umfragen haben die FPÖ in der Stmk vor kurzem schon noch deutlich niedriger gesehen, aber ich glaube da wissen wir zu wenig um wirklich seriös etwas sagen zu können.
Naja. "Erdrutschsieg" verstehe ich als "deutlicher Sieg" und nicht unbedingt als Bewegung, trotz der Metapher, und das ist bei 8 Prozentpkt schon fair... einen Vergleich mit der NRW finde ich aber schwierig, ist ja nicht so, dass die Parteien in Bund und Ländern normalerweise ähnlich stark sind...
Andrea Ceron looked differently last time I checked (and also had a slightly different name), I guess the "real" one is not on here (yet) 😉 - but I really am me as far as I know, thanks for the mention!
