Measuring Socioeconomic Inequalities in a Comparative Perspective
Cross-National Comparison of Age and Period Effects on Levels of Subjective Well-Being in Australia and Switzerland During Volatile Economic Times (2001-2016)
The Middle Class in World Society
Globale Ordnung
What Attaches Individuals to Groups and Society. A European Comparison
By extending the analytical perspective of Durkheim, we set a theoretical framework to examine social bonds at two levels: the attachment of individuals to each other and the attachment of individuals to society. We create statistical indicators for comparing European countries and also, on an exploratory basis, the regions of Switzerland. We can distinguish and validate four ideal types of attachment regimes (familialist, voluntarist, organicist…
Wealth(s) and Subjective Well-Being
Inégalités de patrimoine et bien-être subjectif chez les seniors en Europe
La plupart des études portant sur les liens entre inégalités et bien‐être subjectif se fondent sur le revenu. Les liens entre inégalités patrimoniales et bien-être subjectif sont moins connus. Sur la base de quatre vagues de l'enquête SHARE (« Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe »), la présente étude vise à comprendre l'effet des inégalités de patrimoine sur le bien-être déclaré des personnes de plus de 50 ans dans 17 pays européens…

Do Opposites Attract? Educational Assortative Mating and Dynamics of Wage Homogamy in Switzerland, 1992–2014
This paper addresses homogamy and assortative mating in Switzerland. The empirical analysis monitors trends for education and hourly wages using the Swiss Labour Force Survey and the Swiss Household Panel. The analysis disentangles the effects of educational expansion from mating patterns and incorporates not only couples, but also singles. Results show an increasing level of assortative mating both for education and for wages. For wage homogamy,…

Relative Deprivation and Well-being
Using data from a European welfare survey this contribution examines the actual Swiss standard of living, the degree and distribution of relative deprivation (the lack of socially perceived necessities) and their consequences for subjective well-being within a European context Although Switzerland has maintained its high level of standard of living, its low level of relative deprivation and its high level of subjective well-being, the differences…

Debt cycles in the world-economy
This book describes and explains the long-term dynamics of Third World debt during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, focusing on the various specific historical patterns of foreign loans, financial crises, and debt settlements between 1820 and 1990
Coping with Global Debt Crises
The settlement of the external debt of insolvent sovereign borrowers has become one of the most important issues in relations between the north and south since the outbreak of the global debt crisis in the early 1980s.For the past eight years representatives of governments and international organizations, bankers, and scientists have suggested several proposals and plans to solve the present debt crisis. The most prominent schemes in this respect…
Schuldenzyklen in der Dritten Welt
International Financial Relations As Part of the World-System
The article develops a structural perspective on international financial relations since about 1800 by placing them into the larger framework of cycles and trends of the world-system. Starting with the observation that global debt crises have always occurred during troughs of Kondratieff cycles and have always originated in the periphery, a body of hypotheses linking long cycles and international financial relations is formulated. These hypothese…
