I Sverige är det fortfarande en klassfråga om man går till tandläkaren. Bra att det också kommit att bli en valfråga!

Det allra mest slående med den här grafen är dock inte dippen på slutet, utan hur den visar det normaltillstånd som varit konstant rådande hela 2000-talet Att en klar majoritet av USA:s befolkning förväntar sig att deras egna inkomster ska sjunka (förlora i köpkraft) under närmast kommande åren.

Yet another study (this time by Claudia Goldin) that uses cross-sectional data, and finds evidence for a U-shaped pattern for gender equality and fertility, even though this pattern does not exist for (almost) any country across time. www.nber.org/papers/w33311

Alice Evans@draliceevans.bsky.social · 2y agoLovers share their hopes & dreams. Living together, they share stories about their days, and learn about different perspectives. If 50% of young Americans are single, this may have social implications - potentially less empathy between men & women. Graph by @jburnmurdoch.bsky.social

Happy for this new study: @antonbandersson.bsky.social and I analyze how social networks contribute to class divides in attitudes to economic inequality from a country-comparative perspective.
Anton B Andersson@antonbandersson.bsky.social · 2y agoNew paper! 🚨 Curious how peoples’ social ties to different class positions shape their attitudes to income inequality and how this varies by country and institutional context?
