We've talked to the team at @worldpolitics.bsky.social about our recent paper on inheritance taxation. This is what came out of it. Have a look!
3 of 6 authors of the July @worldpolitics.bsky.social article, "Why is it so Hard to Counteract Wealth Inequality" spoke with The Storied Teller about #inheritance #taxation & #wealth #inequality. @madselk.bsky.social @benansell.bsky.social @mhaslberger.bsky.social wpj.princeton.edu/storied-tell...
Figure 3 from "Why is it so Hard to Counteract Wealth Inequality" illustrates how people with low #wealth are much less likely to have an opinion about #inheritance #taxation than people with high wealth @madselk.bsky.social @benansell.bsky.social @aslicansunar.bsky.social @mhaslberger.bsky.social

Our paper (w/ @cbwlezien.bsky.social) is now in print! Perhaps of interest to survey researchers contemplating whether/how to use the DK response option when measuring the public's policy preferences. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Really fantastic contribution by @madselk.bsky.social and @cbwlezien.bsky.social for applied researchers thinking about how to write questions. Attentive to respondent user experience by specific mode, differences across topics, and implications for substantive research findings

På trods af jeg underviser i statskundskab på KU og bedømmer dusinvis af opgaver hvert semester er jeg tilsyneladende ikke god nok til at blive en del af det danske censorkorps. Men jeg kan jo altid søge igen til februar 2029..
