The grey shades of green jobs
Wealth and Income Stratification by Social Class in Five European Countries
Wealth is a central determinant of life chances and intergenerational status persistence in modern societies. Despite increasing attention, sociologists traditionally overlooked its role in class-based economic disparities, while most economists focused on the elites’ accumulation. This article combines sociological and economic perspectives to test whether big occupational classes, the most standardised and operationalisable approach, depict the…
A Contemporary Perspective on Social Classes and functional Income Distribution
Functional distribution, personal income inequality, and top shares of income
This paper aims at providing new evidence about the link between personal and functional distribution and top-shares composition. We apply a novel class scheme based on two key features of contemporary capitalism i.e., individuals/households receiving multiple types of incomes, and the role of managers. The empirical application in Germany, Spain, and Italy over the period 2000–2017 reveals two main results. First, we observe a direct link betwee…
Gender gaps in power and control within jobs
This article investigates the gender differences in the tasks performed at the workplace using individual-level data representative of the French working population. In particular, we are interested in exploring gender gaps in power and control. Our findings reveal that, within the same job, women tend on average to be subjected to more forms of control than men even controlling for a wide set of supply-side characteristics, such as education, ag…
The Rise of Corporate Net Lending Among G7 Countries
In recent decades, corporate net lending has been increasing in several developed countries. This paper discusses the impact of financialisation and income distribution on the level of net lending of listed non-financial corporations in G7 countries. We argue that financialisation affects the level of corporate net lending through firms' re-organisation towards a model of accumulation based on the maximisation of ‘shareholder value’ and through i…
