Who supports involved fatherhood? Structural and individual predictors across 26 countries
The effect of the local economic context and local public services on financial satisfaction among youth in European cities
The post-2008 economic recovery period has seen varying degrees of improvement in the well-being of young individuals across different countries, regions, and cities of the EU. This study contributes to the literature on the geography of well-being by examining the impact of urban economic contexts on the subjective well-being of youth in Europe, a topic that has received limited attention so far. Specifically, we investigate how the local econom…
Does attending to extremely poor clients increase the burnout of social workers
This study examines how working with extremely poor clients contributes to social worker burnout. Previous research has shown that the emotional labour social workers perform on a daily basis may have negative consequences such as job stress and burnout. Studies have also reported that clients’ poverty may increase these consequences through several mechanisms. Based on these findings, we hypothesised that social workers working with extremely po…
Social Workers' Causal Attributions for Poverty
Social workers may play an important role in the implementation of welfare policies targeted at the poor. Their norms, beliefs, and attitudes form local anti-poverty programmes and affect discretionary practices with their clients. Despite this, we know little about how social workers' exposure to poverty shapes their attitudes towards poverty and their causal attributions for poverty. This study investigates social workers' poverty explanations …
Welfare states as lifecycle redistribution machines
Social scientists identify two core functions of modern welfare states as redistribution across (a) socio-economic status groups (Robin Hood) and (b) ‘the lifecycle’ (the piggy bank). But what is the relative importance of these functions? The answer has been elusive, as the piggy bank is metaphorical. The intra-personal time-travel of resources it implies is based on non- quid-pro-quo transfers. In practice, ‘lifecycle redistribution’ must opera…
Poor targeting? Targeting the poor? Redistribution in the Hungarian welfare system by age and socio‐economic status
In line with the previous research, we confirm that welfare programmes in Hungary are poorly targeted in terms of socio‐economic status (SES). However, by adding age to our models, we demonstrate that even if the status is irrelevant in explaining access to social benefits and services, age is not. Applying simple regression techniques, we compare both the theoretical importance (based on regression coefficients) and the dispersion importance (us…
