Right-wing terrorism and far-right support
How do ethnically motivated terrorist attacks shape electoral support for the far right? We study a unique case: a coordinated series of anti-Roma murders in Hungary in 2008–2009, the most severe episode of anti-minority violence in the country since World War II. Combining difference-in-differences and synthetic control methods, we compare attacked settlements to multiple counterfactuals, including planned-but-unrealized targets. We find that Jo…
Corruption and extremism
This paper shows that corruption generates extremism, but mainly on the opposition side. While corruption hurts all citizens, only voters on the minority side may desire to switch to a more extreme representative when they perceive a more corrupt political system. In our model, campaigning on a corruption scandal against the incumbent gives a higher winningprobability for the opposition politician but simultaneously reduces expected future rents …
Inequality perception and preferences globally and locally - correlational evidence from a large-scale cross-country survey
Using a large, representative survey involving 31 countries, we establish stylized facts about the attitudes toward cross-country economic inequality and their correlates. This question has been surprisingly understudied for a topic so important to our globalized $$21^{st}$$ 21 st century. We present a simple and intuitive theoretical framework for thinking about cross-country inequalities. Then, we show that people’s perceived and desired levels…
A Twofold Subjective Measure of Income Inequality
Social scientists have been aiming to calculate a 'subjective income Gini coefficient'of survey respondents that would describe their beliefs about income inequality in their country. Niehues (Subjective perceptions of inequality and redistributive preferences: an international comparison, Cologne Institute for Economic Research, IWTRENDS Discussion Paper, 2014) derives this estimate from respondents' beliefs about the relative sizes of different…
Social Mobility and Political Regimes
This paper measures social mobility rates in Hungary during the period 1949 to 2017, using surnames to measure social status. In those years, there were two very different social regimes. The first was the Hungarian People's Republic (1949-1989), which was a communist regime with an avowed aim of favouring the working class. The second is the modern liberal democracy (1989-2017), which is a free-market economy. We find five surprising things. Fir…

The International Journal of Integrated Care (IJIC) is an online, open-access, peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles in the field of integrated care on a continuous basis.IJIC has an Impact Factor of 5.120 (2020 JCR, received in June 2021)
Prevalência de marcadores do vírus da hepatite B em crianças de 3 a 9 anos em um município da Amazônia brasileira
OBJETIVO: Estimar a prevalência da infecção pelo vírus da hepatite B e identificar as possíveis vias de infecção em crianças de 3 a 9 anos em um município da Amazônia brasileira. MÉTODOS: Foi realizado um estudo transversal com 487 crianças matriculadas em creches e escolas públicas. Foram obtidos dados acerca de migração, história médica, exposição a fatores de risco clássicos para infecção, aspectos socioeconômicos e hábito de compartilhar a ca…
Prevalência e fatores associados a marcadores do vírus da hepatite B em população rural do Brasil central
Our data suggest that hepatitis B virus vaccine coverage in Brazil should be extended to include teenagers in populations that have a low to moderate hepatitis B virus prevalence. It is likely that our results can be extrapolated to other areas of Latin America with a similar epidemiological pattern
Influência da migração na prevalência de marcadores sorológicos de hepatite B em comunidade rural
Como parte de uma investigação epidemiológica de campo sobre hepatite B num município de características rurais do Estado de São Paulo, Brasil, foi estudada a distribuição de marcadores sorológicos dessa doença segundo à área de residência e o local de nascimento dos indivíduos. Para o município estudado como um todo, a prevalência encontrada para um ou mais dos marcadores sorológicos de hepatite B foi de 7,7%, com os habitantes rurais apresentan…
Prevalência de marcadores sorológicos de hepatite B numa pequena comunidade rural do Estado de São Paulo, Brasil
Foi realizado estudo epidemiológico com vistas a determinar a prevalência de marcadores sorológicos de hepatite B na população de um pequeno município, de características rurais, do Estado de São Paulo. Observou-se prevalência total de marcadores igual a 7,74%, com valores de HBsAg, anti-HBs e anti-HBc, respectivamente iguais a 0,10%, 1,69% e 7,64%. Ressalta-se a importância da determinação do anti-HBc em estudos epidemiológicos, bem como discute…
