Authoritarian parties, liberal parties, terrorism, and an #rstats distraction: 4 links I liked

Apparently there is a market for left-wing authoritarian parties in Western Europe: “The consequences of supply gaps in two-dimensional policy spaces for voter turnout and political support”

The plight of Ciudadanos, and Liberal parties more generally

Terrorism does increase with immigration – but only homegrown, right-wing terrorism

What a wonderful distraction: doing algebra and calculus with R and yacas

Bonus track: this glorious thread on state-sponsored youth festivals in the former GDR
