There is a 1 year teaching contract (3 courses over the year) going at ANU for next year. It's open to pol sci feilds and being onshore in Aus would be an advantage

A colossal effort by @fmartinezicoma and @Diegoleivavdm to create the most comprehensive database of election turnout from 1945-2020. A fantastic resource, the result of meticulous data collection and cleaning powered by blood, sweat and probably dangerous levels of caffeination!
After four years of work, this with @Diegoleivavdm is out @ElectoralStdies: The Global Dataset on Turnout (GD-Turnout) https://t.co/HlKOkdHiGH Data and codebook here: https://t.co/43hjo7iYLI We are very happy.

How worried should we be about electoral #disinformation? “Very worried!” is what @MaukMarlene & I conclude in our @cps_journal study. We find robust evidence that online disinfo is associated with less accurate perceptions of #ElectoralIntegrity 🧵1/16 https://t.co/4MX0fkHviI

What's going on at ACU is the worst example of what can go wrong in uni admin. Fast, short-sighted changes in policy. Large investments in a field one year; drop the whole institute 3 years later. Millions in consultancies of uncertain value. (1/4) https://t.co/J3tddOc5pT
@pylekeyton It is unbelievable. I was head hunted 3 years ago with a contract to build a 4 person team of world class political science researchers that today includes the brilliant @pylekeyton and @KathrynBaragwa. And now before even completing the hires they’re letting us all go.

Just all around bad, appaling management at @ACUmedia. Indicative of the broader trend in higher ed of course. Full solidarity with those affected, @pylekeyton @KathrynBaragwa + others ✊🏼. I hope the last word on this issue hasn't been spoken yet.

Job cuts like these tear at the fabric of our universities and take an immense human toll. University staff don’t deserve to pay for management’s failures with their jobs. ACU should scrap this terrible plan! Sign the petition here:
