Publicerad 28 november 2019 Roxanna Sjöstedt undersöker tillsammans med Anders Themnér, Uppsala universitet, de retoriska strategier som används av så-kallade ’Warlord Democrats’, före detta krigsherrar som deltar i de demokratiska val som äger rum efter det att en inomstatlig konflikt tagit slut. Varför använder sig vissa aktörer av skrämselretorik medan andra för fram en fredlig sådan? Författar

Jakob Skovgaard, statsvetare och expert på klimatskadliga subventioner, har koll på hur länder bör agera för att kunna dra ner på stödet till fossil energi. – Få känner till det här. Många tror till och med att det är tvärtom, att
