É uma grande honra para mim receber este prestigiado prémio da APCP 2025, especialmente tendo em conta o júri brilhante deste ano. Muito obrigada pela confiança no meu trabalho!.
Já há Prémio da Associação Portuguesa de Ciência Política 2025 para a melhor tese de doutoramento: foi para a @catarinalion, com o trabalho "Autocratic Legacies and Immunisation Against Extremism: A Rational Choice Approach.” Muitos parabéns!

It has crossed my mind that if protests spread nationwide, he could claim civil unrest and declare martial law, effectively transitioning into a dictatorship. As insane as it could be, nothing is off the table at this point.

Have been looking forward to this one! An absolutely essential read for anyone studying the political economy of autocracies, and particularly how land ownership shapes modern societies.
It's so great to see my new book, Land Power, out in the world! @BasicBooks Barnes & Noble. A 'must-read' - Thomas Piketty @PikettyWIL .'Captivating' - Daron Acemoglu @DAcemogluMIT .'Fascinating' - Francis Fukuyama @FukuyamaFrancis .A 'sweeping scope' - Daniel Ziblatt @dziblatt

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck. You know what I’m talking about.

I hope more will follow. This place has become unbearable. I will resume my activity on the other side too, under bluer skies.

If you're looking for an excellent fellowship opportunity to focus exclusively on your research for two years in beautiful Paris, apply now! @AxPo_Obs @SciencesPo_CEE . (Happy to chat about my experience if you're interested).
