My editorial "Democracy is an Ecosystem: How to Persuade Philly's Gen Z Voters" has appeared in the Philadelphia Citizen. Young adults have the most to lose if a new Trump presidency fractures our democracy. thephiladelphiacitizen.org/guest-commenta…


CNN dropped the ball. First question should have been about Jan. 6 and Trump's unprecedented threat to democracy. Instead they buried that questioning 40 minutes in. By treating this like a normal debate they normalized America's greatest threat.


Professional news: thrilled that I'll be staying at Swarthmore College as Visiting Assistant Professor on a new multiyear position @SwatPoliSci Excited for more time with some of the best colleagues and students around.


Academics work alone. APSA is one of the few opportunities to feed off the collective intellectual energy of our peers, in a more social environment. Words like "networking" don't do this justice. If cancellation proceeds, let's not forget to rectify these lost opportunities.


Excited for this afternoon's talk at Swarthmore College by Desmond Jagmohan (UC Berkeley): "Frederick Douglass and the Nature of Resistance" hosted by my Department @SwatPoliSci @jonnythakkar


Excited that my piece on J.S. Mill, which was published online over the summer, is now out in print at the @apsrjournal

How do we mobilize social movements against intensifying threats while safeguarding liberal-democratic values? @gordon_arlen advances a novel understanding of John Stuart Mill's work to answer this question. #APSRNewIssue #OpenAccess #PoliSciResearch ow.ly/XuwH50MVMz8

Super-excited that my article "Getting Real about Taxes" with Carlo Burelli is out at Ethics and International Affairs @EIAJournal We analyze the tax sheltering issue both empirically and conceptually through the tools of normative political realism.

Out now on #FirstView: "Getting Real about Taxes: Offshore Tax Sheltering and Realism's Ethic of Responsibility" by @gordon_arlen and Carlo Burelli. Find the full article here: cambridge.org/core/journals/…



So proud of Jason S. Canon @uncanonical for writing one of the best pieces on Rousseau I've ever seen.

My article "Three General Wills in Rousseau" is out in The Review of Politics. It's my first publication. Here's the argument in brief. 🧵1/10 cambridge.org/core/journals/…



(3) Thanks are due to everyone who gave feedback, and to Enzo Rossi and Rainer Forst for supporting my postdoctoral research on the topic during several wonderful years in the Netherlands and Germany.


(2) The article explores the issue of high-value tax avoidance through a democratic theory/institutional design lens.


My article "Citizen Tax Juries: Democratizing Tax Enforcement after the Panama Papers" is out at Political Theory (open access!). journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…


Thrilled to be joining Swarthmore College @swarthmore as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Political Science. Thanks to everyone for their support!
