Your weekend reading (and my new article) is out today @PoPpublicsphere.
In this article I develop a novel theory of autocratic revolving doors - the phenomenon of autocratic elites returning to a cabinet position under democracy.

Very happy to see this paper published @JPR_journal (co-authored with Manuel Vogt @uclspp) on the individual legacy of violent and nonviolent conflict on democratic support.

We also show that the life-period during which indiviuduals experience these types of conflicts (violent vs nonviolent) matters differently for their support for democracy, and does their conflict experience "profile" (no spoilers here).
The paper is open access (thanks to @DCU) so make sure to check out all the details of our analysis.
Read, share and cite :)
Super excited to see this paper - with the all-time great Alex Baturo - published in @World_Pol.
We conceptualized dictators as human resource managers to provide a unified theoretical explanation...

We use novel measures of dismissals and reshuffles from two different datasets to test our theoretical observations (including the mechanisms). We also illustrate the logic of our argument with a short case study of elite management strategies under Putin in Russia.
There's a lot of really cool stuff in the paper so I urge you to check it out. Please get in touch if you cannot get around the paywall and I am happy to share a version of the paper with you. Of course, read, cite and share!

Selecting on the dependent variable here, but I want to give a shoutout to the four reviewers that provided really good comments that made the paper so much better. Whoever you are, I appreciate your insights and comments! The editorial staff @PoPpublicsphere was fantastic.
