- Great work starting to open up the black box of Australian elite-level climate politics
- Which groups mobilise on #climate policy in Australia? 📣 Darren Halpin and I have a new paper out in @environmentalpol.bsky.social that systematically maps who mobilises on climate policy in Australia, what side of the issue they fall on, and in which arenas they mobilise. Key finding include 🧵

- Some personal news: last week I became a German citizen! A typically understated, bureaucratic ceremony, but it still meant a lot to me. I’m looking forward to voting in my first German election, and shouting at people when they cycle on the Bürgersteig ;)
- There are surely few greater privileges in this world than gaining citizenship to another country not because you must but simply because you wish to. This is not lost on me - and I’m extra grateful
- This has been a tumultuous week in Australian climate politics! And a good example of how target setting becomes a focal point for agenda-setting on climate, as per @jacobedenhofer.bsky.social, @chflachsland.bsky.social and my paper (below) www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

- Reposted by Claudia Zwarwork with @claudiazwar.bsky.social on climate institutions. Policy instruments span market-based tools (e.g. carbon pricing, ETS) and non-market approaches (e.g. standards, subsidies). Instrument design structures distributive outcomes and thus reshapes coalitional politics. bsky.app/profile/clau...

- Already becoming a lodestar for my thinking on climate politics research! Great to see this WP out.
- 🧵 @chflachsland.bsky.social and I posted the first draft of our Climate Politics Framework (CPF) paper—our attempt to provide a structured synthesis of the insights of modern social science into why ambitious climate mitigation is politically such a wicked problem, and under osf.io/preprints/so...
- Excited to be in Madrid this week for EPSA! At 9:30 on Saturday I’ll present my paper on the electoral costs of climate ambition alongside some other great projects ⬇️
- Furthermore, @antvalentim.bsky.social and I are discussing/chairing a panel on "how to build climate coalitions" featuring really cool papers by @dianebolet.bsky.social, @claudiazwar.bsky.social, @palomabril.bsky.social & Luis Azores! Definitely worth getting up early for!

- Reposted by Claudia ZwarAnalysis of the electoral impact of German legislation aiming to phase out fossil-fueled heating systems. Main finding: Material costs of the policy, proxied by the characteristics of the local building stock, led to relative gains for the right-wing populist party. By @mkalkuhl.bsky.social et al.
- The world may feel like a dark place right now, but at least the sun is shining on my short visit at the Sydney Environment Institute. Thank you very much @seisydney.bsky.social for having me!

- CIs - including framework climate legislation, climate advisory bodies, and climate ministries - have proliferated globally. Yet, compared with policy instruments, we know relatively little about them and the role they play in effective climate change mitigation (2/5)
- We propose 2 novel theoretical tools: (i) an encompassing + replicable definition of CIs and (ii) a framework to analyse their effects. The CIAF sees CIs as addressing a series of 'strategic challenges' in climate policy and engendering effects via 'stylised causal chains' (3/5)
