Welfare by design
A basic premise of research on welfare state spending is that electoral incentives matter, with voters backing programme expansion and opposing retrenchment. However, the evidence supporting this premise is mixed. Departing from previous studies, we argue that these apparent null effects arise from an emphasis on the generosity of social benefits rather than their distribution . Shifting attention to the latter, we argue that individual preferenc…
Paternity leave take-up in a segmented labor market
To evaluate the success of paternity leave as a progressive, equal-access policy instrument, it is essential to assess it against the backdrop of preexisting labor market inequalities that condition its use. We investigate the recent and rapid expansion of paternity leave entitlements in Spain where leave was extended from four to 16 weeks over the course of just three years. Analyses of an original survey administered to cohorts of fathers with …
Paternity Leave and the Motherhood Penalty
Motherhood‐related labour market penalties remain a major driver of the gender employment gap. Father‐specific paternity leave is often promoted as a policy tool to support maternal employment, yet evidence of its effectiveness is mixed. This article examines whether—and under what conditions—paternity leave reduces key dimensions of the motherhood penalty, including the timing of return to work, the terms of labour market re‐entry, and perceived…
Iguales e intransferibles? Preferencias por el sistema de permisos por nacimiento
Ante la ausencia de estudios sobre las preferencias hacia el sistema de permisos por nacimiento en España, la presente investigación, con datos de una encuesta original de 3,100 madres y padres recientes, revela una aceptación muy baja del actual sistema de permisos iguales e intransferibles (11%) y una brecha de género considerable en las preferencias sobre la distribución de los permisos. En cambio, encontramos amplia aceptación (del 95%) para …
Closing the Gender Gap in Internal Political Efficacy? Gender Roles and the Masculine Ethos of Politics in Spain
Given women’s gains in employment, education, and economic status, the persistent gender gap in internal political efficacy remains a puzzle for social scientists. We go beyond standard socioeconomic explanations and consider gender roles, which, unlike socioeconomic situation, are a slow-moving force constrained by gendered socialization. Stereotypically feminine traits jar with stereotypical notions of politics in general, as competitive, and l…
Evaluating the Unequal Economy
How do citizens form evaluations of the economy? Defining features of advanced capitalism like income inequality and labor market dualization present a challenge for assessing the health of the economy based on a small set of macroeconomic indicators. This is particularly true for those whose proximity to poverty and precarious labor market position is not always reflected in the official unemployment rate. For those individuals, socio-economic s…
Working poverty, nonstandard employment and political inclusion
Are labour market outsiders also political outsiders? The labour market dualization literature offers inconsistent evidence as to the effects of nonstandard employment on political demobilization. This article shows that thus far unaccounted for exposure to poverty among workers in nonstandard employment varies considerably across labour markets, and that this variation carries implications for political inclusion. Analyses of five waves of the E…

On the Use of Crowdsourcing Labor Markets in Research
Crowdsourcing platforms offer a source of inexpensive data for research. At their fingertips, researchers have a round-the-clock workforce to fill out surveys, participate in experiments, and content-analyze text, among other tasks that generate social science data and help support research. Thanks to its low cost and convenience, crowdlabor has quickly and uncritically become a mainstream tool in our discipline. While such platforms have been ev…
Political knowledge in complex information environments
A New Approach to Estimating Electoral Instability in Parties
Recent scholarship has identified problems in the measurement of party system instability. To limit the conflation of different sources of instability in party systems (e.g., electoral shifts between stable parties and instability in parties, such as mergers, splinters or new parties), this article introduces a new indicator of electoral instability in parties, tests its robustness and construct validity and demonstrates its usefulness empiricall…
More Misinformed than Myopic
When government fails us
The research for this article was motivated by a noticeable discrepancy between levels of participation and trust in post-socialist civil organizations. While civic participation in Central and Eastern Europe is almost nonexistent, levels of trust in post-socialist civil organizations compare favourably to those in Western Europe. The first aim of this article is to understand why citizens place relatively high trust in post-socialist civil organ…
