Comparative migration policy research is growing rapidly, not at least thanks to the hard work of the MIGPOL team (migpol.org). Last week we organized a panel for the #DemscoreConference. A thread about three fantastic projects that you should have on your radar

In a debate article today in @altingetse, me and 58 other researchers call out the government for pulling out the rug underneath Swedish development research, in a time where knowledge about complex global challenges is more important than ever. altinget.se/utbildning/art…

🚨NEW ARTICLE ALERT🚨 @GrahnMichal & @malinhlm explore the politics of 🇸🇪 Sweden's new & not-so-liberal trans ID law in their new ✨FREE ACCESS✨paper 🏳️‍⚧️ "Trans inclusive no more? Allies and adversaries of gender self-identification in Sweden" ow.ly/hFIl50Tcjpt

Now with issue number: Free Movement versus European Welfare States? Variations of the Fiscal Effects of EU Migrants across Welfare State Regimes - Marcus Österman, Joakim Palme, Martin Ruhs, 2024 journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Important work on street-level bureaucracy! @Koritchi and @moberg_linda show how judicial review is constraining discretion in policy implementation. This role of the courts is all too often overlooked in SLB research (see, e.g. Lipsky 1980).

Glad that my first paper is now online! @UU_PoliSci There are many ways of investigating the typically observed strong relationship between educational attainment and attitudes toward immigration. Here, I use three natural experiments with Swedish twin data 👇

Sara Kalm is one of the co-authors of the article “Historical Immigration Policies: Trends and Lessons” which has recently been published. svet.lu.se/en/article/new…

New article out by @QinyaFeng in Journal of Experimental Political Science! In the paper, she uses not one, not two, but -three- natural experiments in Swedish twin data to scrutinize the relationship between education and attitudes towards immigration. bit.ly/4fL2k9i

Very important work on the intersection between migration and representation by @SandraHkansson4 and @NazitaLajevardi! Great to see studies like these published in @apsrjournal!

@demscore And a shout out to our team at @UU_PoliSci for all the preparations!
