Happy to have contributed to a very comprehensive book on the 2019 European Parliament election together with the awesome 'Reconnect' team from Vienna! I wrote a chapter on Denmark together with the fabulous James Wilhelm (Vienna). Link: https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/e/9780367816926#.XpwPS-OyTrQ.twitter
This one is to all policy agendas lovers: New chapter with Laura Chaques Bonafont & Christoffer Green-Pedersen introduces policy agendas dataset, ways to analyze it, & ways to go forward with the data. Great intro for students & aspiring researchers. Part of a very cool edited volume on policy analysis.
The CAP2020 conference in Aarhus is cancelled. We are super disappointed and very sad to have to make this decision. We will come back strong for the CAP2021 next year in Aarhus! We will announce the date for the CAP2021 conference in Aarhus as soon as possible. There will be a new call for abstracts during the fall and registration next spring.
https://ps.au.dk/forskning/konferencer/cap2020/ Incredibly happy to see my manuscript ‘“Don’t trust that party!” Undermining a rival party’s issue ownership through negative campaigning’, with my friend and good colleague Alessandro Nai accepted for publication in Political Studies. In a series of experiments, we test to what extent a party can use negative campaigning to attack a rival party's issue ownership. This manuscript had a long and tough way to publication so it feels amazing to finally set it coming forward. Thanks for the great work Alessandro!
Friday afternoon, Frederik Jørgensen defended his dissertation on the consequences of integration policy change at Dept. of Political Science at Aarhus University. I had the privilege to chair the assessment committee and had lots of fun and learned a lot together with Sara Wallace Goodman (UC Irvine) and Merlin Schäeffer (Copenhagen).
Together with my brilliant co-authors, Shaun Bevan and Enrico Borghetto, I just handed over our contribution to Routledge Handbook of Policy Styles, edited by Mike Howlett and Jale Tosun. Writing it was a lot of fun and this is only the beginning of our collaborative research on opposition party behavior in parliament. Stay tuned!
This morning, P1 and P4 (Danish national broadcast corporation) invited me to analyze the causes and consequences of the turmoil connected to the leadership contest in the Danish green leftwing party, "Alternativet". Always fun to engage with journalists that can help shape and communicate my research.
P1, 8:05: https://www.dr.dk/radio/p1/p1-morgen P4, 8:35: https://www.dr.dk/radio/p4aarhus/regionale-nyheder-ar4 Together with Christoffer Green-Pedersen, I have just released the latest update of the Comparative Agendas data for Denmark that covers all parliamentary activities and party maniesto up to 2018. Link: https://www.comparativeagendas.net/dk. We have just started the next round of updating to cover up to 2019. We hope to release this data in the early summer.
I have released my dataset on political parties' issue ownership across 35 issues, 17 countries and multiple elections. Almost 1000 obs. Pls share and use! Source: Hundreds of National Election Studies. Link to download and details: https://henrikbechseeberg.weebly.com/datasets.html
