Acabamos de publicar un estudio en @thejop.bsky.social usando perfiles tipo Tinder en 🇬🇧 y 🇪🇸 para analizar cómo las identidades políticas afectan a nuestras decisiones románticas.

¿El hallazgo? Los votantes del PP prefieren salir con alguien de Vox mucho antes que con alguien del PSOE. 👀

Excited to share my latest #OpenAccess publication!

I develop a theory on how courts can counter executive aggrandizement—even in unlikely contexts—offering a fresh perspective on #DemocraticResilience.

I welcome any feedback, reactions, or questions!

A comic depicting 12 different types of political theory paper, with titles poking fun at different types of paper.
