The Braincast podcast featured my research on nudging and cascades of norm violation in social networks. In only 20 minutes, the podcast explains what sociology is about, summarizes my research with Karl-Dieter Opp on norm violation in networks, and debates problems of nudging.

You can listen to the podcast (in German) here. The paper is published here. 

The following animation movie provides an impression of the dynamics that we studied in our paper.
