Very happy to share my second dissertation paper, now out in Party Politics.

We just published an article in the APSR on "the effect of symbolic policies on climate policy support".
Too long to read? I got you covered with a short video explaining the core of our research in 2min 🙏
partycoloR is now on CRAN! Started as a simple idea 6 years ago, now it's a full-featured package. Extract party colors and logos from Wikipedia with one line of code. It's already powering ParlGov Dashboard.

Yascha Mounk hört im Auftrag der „Free Press“ die linke Presse ab.
Der Angriff auf den Sozialstaat wird mit den anstehenden Verschärfungen nicht vorbei sein! Und das geht uns alle an: Niemand, außer die Überreichen, sind davor gefeit, doch mal in der Grundsicherung zu landen. Es geht nicht um "die anderen". Es geht um uns.

#VendrediLecture 📚
Our PhD students @malojan.bsky.social & @luissattelmayer.bsky.social just released a great dataset on political parties' social media activity: 498 parties, 37 countries, 4 platfoms!
PartySOME Dataset: github.com/malojan/part...

Thank you Caterina!
Thank you!
We hope PartySOME becomes a valuable resource for anyone studying the digital life of parties: github.com/malojan/part...
Stay tuned for more updates and data releases in the future as we are planning to release aggregate salience measures on policy issue according to the CAP coding scheme 🤓
Predicted values for the effect of the electoral cycle on social media activity.
Predicted values for the effect of populism on social media activity.
Predicted values for the effect of party family on social media activity.
Coefficients for the effect of party resources on social media activity.
Interesting patterns emerge: larger parties and those in government post more, radical right parties are particularly active on Instagram and Twitter/X, populist parties post more than non-populist ones, and activity spikes as elections approach.
Number of accounts created by year for each platform. Dashed lines indicate the launch dates of each platform: Facebook in February 2004, YouTube in February 2005, Twitter in March 2006, and Instagram in October 2010.
Monthly evolution of the number of posts by platform. Dashed lines represent the creation of each platform. Due to incomplete data for Twitter in 2023, we exclude Twitter data from December 2022 onwards.
This makes it possible to study how parties adopted different platforms over time, compare patterns across countries and party families, analyze strategic posting behavior, and link activity to survey or electoral data.
Account identification and data collection of the PartySOME dataset.
PartySOME covers 498 parties in 37 countries on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, and YouTube, from account creation to the end of 2023. The dataset doesn't include the textual content but provides rich metadata on posting frequency, type (image/video), and party handles, along with platform coverage.
Excited to share that together with @malojan.bsky.social we’ve published a research note in #partypolitics introducing PartySOME, a comprehensive dataset on political parties’ social media activity. A thread 🧵 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
HEADS-UP! 🚨
On Wednesday October 29, the Netherlands will holds its 9th (!) legislative elections of the 21st century. I will continue to post disproportionately about my country of birth and citizenship (but not of residence) in the coming weeks.
This will be my thread for Dutch news! 🧵
