‘Polarization’ has become the master concept for diagnosing our current democratic crisis.

But this is not polarization. It is the radicalization of the political right.

By misdiagnosing it, we risk becoming complicit in the crisis. 🧵

Concepts are never politically innocent.

We must call things what they are.

It's not polarization; it's the radicalization of the political right.

At moments like this, do you wonder why political science is so distant from politics and so obsessed with "value-neutrality"? This article helps to explain why.

A superb book. I reviewed it here: doi.org/10.1017/S153...
Jeff Broxmeyer wrote a book about how ambitious young men out to make their fortune would often, in the late 19th century, turn to politics. There were lots of ways to make money in politics then! It was the crypto of its day

Poli sci work on authoritarianism and populism largely overlooks audiovisual strategies.

We study the supply (how parties call themselves) and demand (what voters reward) sides. We pair a new European dataset of party names with conjoint experiments on voter reactions
