#polsci #radical #liberationtheology theorists, point me at readings or authors to look at regarding alternative models for #contestation (ideas, access, executive authority). I'm interested in praxis and rhetoric, but also metaphysical insight (given conflict appears endemic) as long as complete submission to material injustice isn't the main strategy.

I've read a lot about transgression, accountability in the context of decarceral liberation but I don't know a lot about prefigurative models for conflict resolution. Boosts appreciated.

And here's is a list of journals in my field(s) that don't suck, based on my (own, possibly evolving) criteria. I hope it grows over time, it's still pretty bleak.

- #sustainability Science
- Policy Studies / Political science #polsci
- #networkscience
- #digitalization research
- #socsci methods

Please, if you know of other journals in those fields that don't suck, let me know. And if you are involved with one of the journals on these lists, thanks so much for your work, you rock. And if you need reviewing or anything I can help with, let me know.

#CfA for a 3 years #PolSci postdoc position at @unibremen in "The domestic politics of EU actions
against democratic backsliding (DEUDEM)" with Arndt Wonka, starting May 01. Deadline March 18.

(Don't ask me why the call is in German but English is a requirement.* I can tell you that both Bremen and Arndt are pleasant to be around, though.)

Törnberg, P., & Chueri, J. (2025). When Do Parties Lie? Misinformation and Radical-Right Populism Across 26 Countries. The International Journal of Press/Politics, 0(0).
journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.11

"Using multilevel analysis with random country intercepts, we find that radical-right populism is the strongest determinant for the propensity to spread misinformation. Populism, left-wing populism, and right-wing politics are not linked to the spread of misinformation. These results suggest that political misinformation should be understood as part and parcel of the current wave of radical right populism, and its opposition to liberal democratic institution."

Yes interesting. I haven't seen the data, but have been told by progressive party strategists here in New Zealand that non voters are skewed to the left *when* there is an increase in them. Not sure if that makes sense. So pissed left voters are more likely not to vote than vote for conservatives, but might vote populist.
Ah sorry, amateur #PolSci !
