Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.Abstract Multi‐ethnic parties have been variously defined: as those which do not champion the interests of, or mobilize against, any specific ethnic group; as those with a recognisably cross‐communal leadership or membership; and as those which acquire some distribution of support across groups.

Cladistics, Volume 42, Issue 2, Page 159-171, April 2026.Abstract With fossil records dating back to the Silurian/Late Ordovician, millipedes stand out as one of the earliest terrestrial animal groups. Their limited vagility and high endemism make them valuable tools for formulating and testing biogeographic hypotheses, including those related to macro‐vicariance events.

Climate shocks, democratization and (a culture of) cooperation
Economica, Volume 93, Issue 370, Page 524-551, April 2026.Abstract While the direct economic effects of adverse climate shocks are well known, their indirect institutional impact is still poorly understood.

Our results show strong local and long‐range connectivity in terrestrial extremes, driven by atmospheric dynamics, contrasting with more localised marine extremes ...
