- Reposted by Mashail Malik🚨NEW WORKING PAPER🚨 Why are many Latino immigrants *not* naturalizing, learning English, and participating in American politics? We provide new theory and evidence across 3 surveys and an instrumental variables approach to show how migration motives shape immigrant integration. tinyurl.com/3expvu8e
- New paper in @ajpseditor.bsky.social. Is descriptive representation good for substantive representation? Why do voters stay loyal to corrupt and poorly governing ethnic parties? I argue that we ought to focus less on patronage and more on dignity concerns. Defiant pride can come at a price. 1/🧵
- Many voters aren’t trading their vote for goods or patronage. They’re seeking recognition in a political system that routinely devalues them, but this demand for dignity can weaken accountability. The paper presents experimental, qualitative, and descriptive evidence in support of this claim.
