Article abstract: This article employs a novel dataset encompassing all Ministers in Greece from 2000 to 2023, providing new insights into their characteristics before, during and after the economic crisis, with special attention to the comparability of these findings across European contexts. Utilising an innovative and flexible typology that moves beyond traditional dichotomous classifications, we distinguish between technocratic and non-technocratic ministers, considering dimensions such as expertise, partisanship and loyalty to the Prime Minister. Our analysis confirms the growing significance of technocrats – particularly the ‘academic technocrat’ – since the onset of the crisis, a trend that aligns with observations also evident in other European countries. Technocrats in Greece, as elsewhere, are frequently entrusted with portfolios focused on crisis management, further supporting patterns identified in comparative research. The influence of strong Prime Ministers and the rise of coalition governments during crisis explain these developments, mirroring factors found in broader European studies.

The point has become moot for me, as Denmark is not going to the World Cup. However, it has certainly resolved the question of whether to visit or not.
With this in mind, it's better to stay away!

Article abstract: What is the impact of democratic transition on the party politics of neighboring democratic nations? While existing scholarship on democratic diffusion primarily focuses on how democratization influences authoritarian regimes, it often overlooks the cross-border effects on neighboring democracies. This study addresses this gap by investigating the impact of democratic transitions on party polarization and the issue salience of democracy in countries with democratic or hybrid regimes. Using the Manifesto Project and V-DEM’s regime transitions data sets and employing a difference-in-differences design with staggered treatment adoption, our analysis reveals a counterintuitive effect: democratic transitions in one country leads to a decrease in party polarization over democracy in neighboring countries. We posit this decline is a long-term phenomenon, linked to the diminishing salience of democracy as a key issue in party manifestos after a short period of initial prominence. By shifting the scholarly focus of diffusion effects to party politics within democratic and hybrid regimes, we contribute to a more nuanced understanding of how democratization ripples beyond its borders, shaping the political landscape in unanticipated ways.
How do democratic transitions affect party politics beyond borders? Ubeydullah Ademi & Firat Kimya examine diffusion effects, showing transitions reduce democracy polarization in neighboring democracies over time. Read more: buff.ly/NIUV6Zx

This is what is waiting for us.
Civil rights and free speech in the US is being suppressed,
- and the US regime is weaponizing US based services controlled by its allied technogarchs to persecute organisations and people outside the US.

Article abstract: While populist radical right parties (PRRPs) have thrived across Europe, Scotland has so far remained an exception. This article explores the reasons behind the failure of PRRPs to gain traction, focusing on the supply side of party competition and developing a more nuanced conceptualization of polarization. It argues that, at a critical moment when PRRPs were growing elsewhere, Scotland’s political landscape was shaped by symbiotic polarization, in which two established and opposing parties – the Scottish National Party (SNP) and the Scottish Conservative Party – reinforced each other’s positions, entrenched by the Scottish independence and Brexit referendums. This dynamic constrained the emergence of PRRPs. Since 2022, however, this political balance has fractured, creating space for a disruptive polarizing force on the populist radical right. Scotland’s case highlights how patterns of polarization can inhibit or facilitate political challengers, offering broader insights into party system resilience and transformation.
Why has the populist radical right failed in Scotland? @davidevampa.bsky.social, Alan Convery & @frasmcm.bsky.social examine how symbiotic polarization between SNP and Conservatives blocked PRRPs, until recently. Read OPEN ACCESS: buff.ly/huOyMQI

Article abstract: How do collective memories of war shape inter-group social attitudes in post-conflict societies? Can the legacy of wartime violence hinder reconciliation for years or even decades after the conflict ends? While prior research shows that war memories influence a range of political processes and outcomes, their effects on how members of formerly opposing groups perceive one another remain underexplored. To address this gap, I conducted a survey experiment in post-war Bosnia, investigating whether the activation of these memories affects hostility toward out-groups. The results show that making war memories salient intensifies hostility, especially among individuals who personally experienced violence during the war. These findings suggest that deeply ingrained war memories pose a significant barrier to reconciliation, but their impact may gradually diminish through the generational replacement of the wartime population.

If its 'accidental', the incompetence and naivety of the US regime is staggering.
It seems that the Trump regime will do anything to harm its allies. - And promote the agenda of the US fossil fuel industry.
