After years in the making, I'm extremely excited to announce that I've signed a contract with @utpress to publish my book, Across the Detroit River! The manuscript has been approved and is expected in print by Spring 2027.
The book poses a question I've long been exploring: why, despite their many similarities, are white working-class Canadians and Americans still voting so differently?
I'm grateful for everyone who has supported this along the way, especially @AmandaDHills for hearing more about this project than anyone should've had to
Excited to share my new publication! The Contrasting Electoral Effects of National Identity: Evidence From White Working‐Class Voters in Canada and the United States - Krashinsky - Nations and Nationalism - Wiley Online Library onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

I'm thrilled to share that I will be starting as the William Lyon Mackenzie King Postdoctoral Fellow at @Harvard and @HarvardWCFIA, where I'll continue my comparative research on Canadian and American politics!
I've absolutely loved my time at the @UofT and @UofT_PolSci, and will be sad to leave my hometown (again) and a political science department full of such wonderful scholars.
We're excited to move to Boston and start this next chapter!

It has long been argued that American politics is group centric, and that race is the defining cleavage separating groups of individuals. Yet, Canadian political science has generally avoided much accounting for the importance of race in the country’s politics.
Over 35 per cent of white Canadians believe that Black Canadians do not deserve any special favours from government. White Canadians with higher levels of racial resentment or white identity are more likely to penalize nonwhite candidates, and are more likely to vote Conservative
