How group deliberation shapes distributional preferences
This paper investigates how group deliberation changes individual distributional preferences. We experimentally assess the relative contribution of persuasion, social identity, and social comparison to shifts in preferences following deliberation. In a controlled setting, participants engaged in ten minutes of non-binding written group deliberation about distributional choices. Post-deliberation preferences became significantly more egalitarian t…

This article introduces, and puts in context, the fourteen papers in the special issue, "Inequality perceptions and fairness judgments
How choice proliferation affects revealed preferences
Le goût des autres
Cet article étudie pourquoi certains individus ont tendance à adopter des comportements de consommation conformistes. Plus précisément, notre attention se porte sur l’analyse des préférences intrinsèques pour la conformité : les préférences des individus auraient tendance à converger vers celles des autres, même dans des contextes où il n’existe pas d’incertitude quant à la qualité des biens et où les choix des individus ne peuvent être observés.…

Robust International Comparisons of Distributions of Disposable Income and Regional Public Goods
The paper provides robust normative comparisons of 12 OECD countries based on their distributions of disposable income and access to two regional public goods: infant mortality and pupil–teacher ratios at public schools. Comparisons are performed using two and three‐dimensional dominance criteria that coincide with the unanimity of utilitarian judgments taken over specific classes of utility functions. The criteria succeed in ranking conclusively…
A robust normative evaluation of India's performance in allocating risks of death
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide a robust normative evaluation of the recent evolution of Indians' exposures to health‐related risks. Design/methodology/approach The paper compares empirically the distributions of individuals' risks of death in India on the basis of new ethically robust criteria in 1995 and 2002. Probabilities of death are assigned individuals as an estimated probit function of several explanatory variables, includ…
