#polSci question:
In the UK we have local and national government administrative areas.
For example:
- my local government area is the ‘Ward’ of Eastney and Craneswater
- my national government area is the ‘Constituency’ of Portsmouth South.
Does the local/municipal | national/federal combo fully address every sizeable country?
Or are there important intermediary ones as well? i.e. areas *between* local/municipal and national/federal which people have some sort of political agency in?
Calling the loss of freedoms and antidemocratization wrought by a predatory delay fossil coalition and the broligarchy the Fourth Wave is such sweet comeuppance, I'm almost sad it is probably too niche to catch on as a popular term.
Just putting this out there, on a sunny sunday for you #polsci nerds

WE NEED to talk about the consultancy work many academics undertake for governments and corporations.We need to talk about this because it’s the dirty secret of policy-focused academia that no-one mentions publicly, even though it raises huge questions about academic independence and integrity, and the ability of the compromised researcher to provide clear and critical analysis of world events.There are broadly two types of consultancy work academics do.First, directly advising governments or corporations, usually receiving generous payment for the latter.
