Friends and colleagues:

On Friday, November 11 (11:00 am-1:30 pm, Eastern Time), please join us for an 
online workshop on What Scholars Know (and Need to Know) about the Politics of 
Climate Change.

Please note the new zoom link below

This workshop will provide an opportunity to discuss a selection of the papers 
that have been commissioned for a PS Political Science symposium, guest edited 
by Jennifer Hadden and Aseem Prakash.  This Symposium will review important 
recent work on the politics of climate change, stimulating more attention to 
existing climate change research and pointing to outstanding questions with 
relevance to the political science discipline. This Symposium also seeks to 
distill the key lessons from political science for an interdisciplinary 
audience. The program is pasted below (also attached).

Re: [EXTERNAL] [gep-ed] Best environmental alternative to Twitter

2022-11-10 Thread Gellers, Joshua
I’m leading a faculty workshop series on promoting research through social 
media and the only thing I’d add to what Shannon already wrote is that for the 
very ambitious there is TikTok, which relies mainly on short videos that can be 
augmented with words and images and is geared towards a youth audience (for 
what it’s worth #BookTok seems to be an effective way of promoting fiction and 
non-fiction works). However, given that this format is dynamic, it can also be 
time-intensive, as you need to produce each video if you’re interested in 
maximizing its chance of spreading widely.

There have been ethical questions regarding how China utilizes TikTok (ie 
surveillance), but if you’re interested in engaging young people, this is the 
platform to use. I hope this helps!

my class! I’m sure others will have other thoughts based on their experiences.

Twitter – easy to engage the broader public, but also lots of space for trolls. 
Good for engaging in conversations and debates. And it is easy to share content 
made by others. Works well with images, text and links.

Instagram – skews to a much younger demographic. Instagram is really about 
original content – sharing of posts is not a thing (although you can with the 
story feature), and you can’t post clickable links in posts. So it is great for 
sharing content more intended for passive scrolling. Comments are possible, but 
in terms of engagement, there is much less compared to other social media.

Facebook – very hard now to develop a Facebook page from scratch and get lots 
of followers unless you already have a known audience. But, Facebook groups are 
very active and a great way to find people who are interested in similar 
issues. Very easy to share images, text and links.

LinkedIn – easy to write and share posts, the expectation of the site though is 
professional content. Not a lot of engagement and debate or resharing of posts.

Snapchat – younger and much more about person to person communication.

Hi all,

Apologies if this has been asked before…but as a social media Neanderthal, I’m 
wondering what might be the most important/visible/ethically-unchallenged 
social media platform for the "environmental community" writ large.

At least in terms of visibility, I’m assuming it’s Twitter because, well, it’s 
just been Twitter for everything. Given recent developments, or one might say 
“regressions,” seems like there’s plenty of justifications to be looking for 
alternatives…and a quick search came up a large number of alternatives out 
there….

Happy to take answers direct to me and I'll collate them for the list.

Additional apologies if my question is too similar to: “What’s the best 
Internet search engine—Google??”

Justifiable answer: "No, it’s Altavista, you medeival Yahoo….”

Thanks,

Charlie Chester

[gep-ed] RE: Vacancy for a Postdoc position on Governing marine pollution

2022-11-10 Thread Leeuwen, Judith van
Dear all,

There are a lot of vacancies at my department. In addition to the one below, we 
now also have a Postdoc vacancy for the EU funded project PERMAGOV. A position 
that focuses on how reflexivity and e-governance can help improve the 
performance of marine governance, especially the implementation of EU marine 
policies that contribute to the EU green deal. The full vacancy can be found 
here: 
https://www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/post-doctoral-researcher-reflexivity-in-marine-governance-to-improve-implementation-and-performance.htm

Feel free to pass on to your graduates, PhDs and your network!

If you have any questions about this vacancy, let me know.

Subject: Vacancy for a Postdoc position on Governing marine pollution

Dear all,

Please note and share the vacancy for a Postdoctoral researcher for the EU 
funded project SOSZeroPol2030. The position focuses on developing governance 
scenarios through a participatory and co-production approach with 
practitioners. The project knows an interdisciplinary consortium, while the 
postdoc has a social scientific focus and is based at the Environmental Policy 
Group of Wageningen University in the Netherlands, with myself and Astrid 
Hendriksen as supervisors. See for more information:
