Taxes: Progressive, Proportional, and Regressive
The generation of government revenue and the redistribution of income among the population are two central reasons for taxation. Governments have used taxation as a means to generate revenue for centuries, and some governments have been using taxation as a means of resource reallocation since at least the 1800s. The three main types of taxation, progressive, proportional, and regressive taxes, are outlined
The Impact of Secularity on Attitudes of Gender Equality: A Multi-Level Analysis of 49 Nations
This research uses a series of hierarchical linear regression models fitted to data from the 2014 World Values Survey ( wvs ) and national statistics for 49 countries to specify the relationship between variables at the macro, meso, and micro level with attitudes of gender equality. In addition to the development of an updated and more robust Gender Equality Scale, the findings show that economic development increases support for gender equality,…
The Intersectionality of Gender, Rights, and Privilege: A Comparative Analysis of 127 Countries
This study provides a macro-level comparison of the rights and privileges that women have around the world through the development of a multi-dimensional index of pro-woman states. This is important because states that score highly on the index provide models for decreasing gender inequalities and increasing human rights for women worldwide. Cross-national differences in female education, employment, reproductive freedom, and participation in sta…
An Index of Pro-Woman Nation-States: A Comparative Analysis of 39 Countries
Pro-woman nation-states need to be identified because these states may help diminish traditional gender roles and gender stratification by providing structural opportunities for women (Wang, 2004; Wernet et al., 2005). Comparative, country-level data on multiple domains, such as female life expectancy, low fertility rates, education levels, the legal status of abortion, the percent of women in public life, female labor force participation, and fa…
Taxes: Progressive, Proportional, and Regressive
The generation of government revenue and the redistribution of income among the population are two central reasons for taxation (Davies 1986).

The three main types of taxation, progressive, proportional and regressive taxes, are outlined
The Postmodern Individual: Structural Determinants of Attitudes
This study uses the World Values Survey and country level data to explore how social structure, especially cross-national differences in female education, reproductive freedom, and participation in state policy formation, is related to attitudes of postmaterialism and gender ideology. Thefindings show that pro-woman state structure and policies are associated with higher educational attainment for citizens, higher work attainment and income level…
