📢New Research Alert! Legislative turnover in Latin America is extreme. With 70%, only 3 in 10 legislators are incumbents, making turnover far higher than elsewhere. Our new article @LAPSjournal with @_MWeiss has data from elections since 1985. doi.org/10.1017/lap.20… 🧵1/4

@MikulasBek I kdyby bylo možné studovat pouze za stipendium (což nelze), doktorandi jsou dále znevýhodňováni tím, že díky absenci zaměstnaneckého poměru jim jejich studium nijak nepomáhá v otázce budoucí penze. A obdobně to je s mateřskou dovolenou, protože doktorát není práce...

@MikulasBek Škoda, že se v rámci veřejné debaty dohaduje o "správné" výši platů na univerzitách, namísto aby se řešily i otázky jako například status doktorandů. Minimálně čtyři roky studia, kdy si člověk může nechat zdát o minimální mzdě, protože výplata formou stipendia je směšně nízká.

@CasMudde @JakubWondreys It is the main slogan of the campaign where they emphasize a certain issue. E.g.: “I will fight for you(ur interests) - To the fullest extent possible”. It is a bigger part of the image of Babiš as a fighter for the common people. The reality of course is quite different.
