Daniel Møller Eriksen’s paper ’Politics as usual on social media? How party competition dynamics diffuse into new arenas’ was identified as the best paper by a junior scholar presented at the Comparative Agendas Project conference 2022 in Israel.

”The conference in Israel was the first time I participated in an academic conference, so I didn't expect to win an award. I’m humbled to receive this recognition. Firstly, because the CAP conference is a fantastic community of scholars with an interest in the study of agenda-setting. Secondly, since Bryan Jones and Frank Baumgartner are two of my greatest academic idols, receiving a prize from them is a great honor,” says Daniel Møller Eriksen.
