Very happy to announce that my application for an @ERC_Research Advanced Grant has been successful. Following up on my earlier TRADEPOWER project, GEOTRADE aims to shed light on the recent geopoliticization of #trade policy. @PLUS_RESEARCH

Trade is increasingly linked to national security concerns. ⚔ But what drives this trend?
Not only governments, but also strong domestic interest groups are pushing for the #geopoliticization of #trade. But they do so in a way that is prone to ineffectiveness and loopholes!

Glad to see that this paper has now been published in isssue 49(2) of @LSQjournal: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Replying to @andduer
2.) “Trade Competitiveness, Constituency Interests, and Legislators’ Attitudes Towards Trade Agreements”, published in @LSQjournal (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…) 3/5
This opinion piece in the @nytimes is weak. "The [European] Parliament ... has little legislative power of its own: It tends to merely rubber-stamp decisions made by the commission." Has the author followed #EU politics since the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty?
In Opinion
“As long as the radical right continues to dominate the terms of mainstream debate, while its historical roots are discreetly ignored, no appeal to European values will stop the river in which we’re all about to drown,” writes Lea Ypi.

Martin Sandbu: Politics will force expansion of CBAM coverage!
👉“What a downstream industry, like carmaking, should push for, therefore, is to widen the scope of CBAM to cars”
👉 This economic logic means CBAM is politically unsustainable in its current form. Once its effects are felt, politicians will face enormous and legitimate pressure to undo the competitive damage experienced by downstream manufacturers such as carmakers.

In a blog from @EJPRjournal research, @andduer & @Robert_A_Huber argue that trade flows and regions’ economic structures matter for political outcomes.
Regions’ trade competitiveness affects legislators’ trade attitudes & incumbents’ chances of re-election

Very glad to see our paper (with @Robert_A_Huber and Yannick Stiller) on "It's #trade, stupid! How changes in trade competitiveness affect incumbents' electoral success" out @EJPRjournal.

We find that decreases in subnational trade competitiveness are associated with greater losses in the vote share of incumbents. This association is particularly strong when clarity of responsibility is high and for economically centrist incumbents. 4/

These findings contribute to the emerging literature on the electoral consequences of #globalization and the long-standing literature on economic voting. 5/5.
