Marc Guinjoan got involved in the study of conspiracy theories together with Carol Galais with a study, later on published in Electoral Studies, on how conspiracy theories triggered changes in populist attitudes. During the COVID-19 the two authors also underwent a reserach project on the correlates of COVID-related conspiracy theories, which was published in Representation.
