Excited to share a new #OA study with @dariatisch.bsky.social and @schechtlm.bsky.social🎉We show that while most people prefer equal inheritance, wealthy individuals are more willing to support unequal transfers when they help preserve wealth across generations ➡️ academic.oup.com/sf/advance-a...
How do workers respond to using AI technology? For @defactoexpert.bsky.social I had the opportunity to highlight the implications of our recent @jeppjournal.bsky.social article. Read more in the blog!
I wanted dinner recommendations so I scraped 13,000+ London restaurants and accidentally discovered Google Maps is running a shadow economy. Anyway here's a dashboard and a political economy thesis: open.substack.com/pub/laurenle...
6/ This means that the impact of poverty is not the same for all: the less resources (education, political socialisation, longer economic hardship) --> the less likely to participate.
💭 I look forward to hearing your thoughts / whether similar patterns show up in your country 👋
5/ Speaking to political socialisation literature, the paper shows that:
1️⃣poverty influences political participation in the context of parental influence and
2️⃣ early-life economic experiences shape long-term political participation patterns
4/ Key finding 2:
▶️ Upward mobility, however, is not linked to higher turnout, indicating that participation patterns established earlier in life persist and mobility experiences can't uplift those who grew up in poverty.
3/ Key finding 1:
▶️ Politically active and well educated parents can buffer the impact of early economic hardship on electoral participation.
2/ Merging German panel data from households, parents and their children, I exploit detailed information on poverty trajectories, political socialisation and political behaviour across around 30 years of respondent's lives.
1/ Does growing up poor always lead to political apathy?
Very happy to share my first paper published (open access) in @electoralstudies.bsky.social, where I show that parents' influence mitigates the poverty gap in participation, while economic mobility does not.

What an interesting presentation today by @clarawe.bsky.social (and @leoazzollini.bsky.social ) on social origins and electoral participation.
Arrived in beautiful #Oxford and looking forward to a very interesting autumn working with @leoazzollini.bsky.social, Tim Vlandas and many more - while thinking of Israel with a heavy heart 💔
