Challenging the Norm
This paper examines women's attitudes toward physical intimate partner violence by husbands across 51 low- and middle-income countries from 1999 to 2020. Using panel data from MICS and DHS surveys, we analyze the role of human development and legal gender equality. Acceptance of physical IPV has declined significantly over time, particularly in countries with a higher level of development, as measured by the Human Development Index. Legal reforms…
An Inverted‐U, an Elephant or Neither? Exploring the Link Between Migrant Integration Policies and Pro‐Immigrant Sentiment
The increasing inflow of migrants from outside Europe has intensified efforts to promote social and economic inclusion while reinforcing social cohesion. These efforts are essential for fostering a fair society, which, in turn, supports a dynamic economy that benefits everyone. In this paper, we examine the relationship between integration policies and pro‐immigrant sentiment, which is regarded as a key‐factor in facilitating migrant integration.…
Three types of income inequality
Despite the growing interest in subjective inequality, little is known about the relation between this and more objective measures of inequality, especially in the light of regional disparities. This study focuses on the patterns of actual income inequality and two subjective measures in NUTS 2 EU regions. By accounting for multiple indicators of economic (under)performance, we show that actual inequality is positively related to people’s percept…
Measuring Tolerant Behavior
This paper addresses the issue of measuring tolerance, viewed as a multifaceted phenomenon involving several different social domains. We develop a multidimensional index for Likert-scale data, characterized by the following features: (i) it reflects the individual’s intensity of tolerant attitudes towards each social domain; (ii) the index can be broken down by dimension in order to determine the contribution of each dimension to overall toleran…
Handling Heterogeneity in Assessing Residential Satisfaction
Residential satisfaction depends on housing and neighborhood conditions in addition to housing cost affordability. To determine the relative importance of these factors, their average effect is usually estimated using sample data, eventually split in subsamples to represent different levels of socioeconomic status. A concern about the division of households into groups is that, as groups are modified or group assignments change, results of quanti…
Cities as drivers of social mobility
Decentralization and economic growth in Europe
The effects of fiscal decentralization on economic growth are analyzed. A theoretical framework is developed that builds on the relationships between government size and growth and between decentralization and government size. The framework is tested empirically on a panel of 25 European countries observed between 1995 and 2015. The econometric results show that the relationship between expenditure decentralization and growth is bell shaped. The …
The value of culture to urban housing markets
Cultural amenities are the expression of a cultural environment, given by a combination of aesthetic factors, styles, rhythms and behaviours, which contribute to make a neighbourhood vibrant and more enjoyable. Following the hedonic approach, we propose an empirical strategy to capture the multiple effects of cultural amenities, as well as the effects produced by green areas, public transport and university proximity. The results are used to dete…
Ethnic minority concentration
Equity in the City
In economic literature, the quality of life (QoL) in a city is usually assessed through the standard revealed-preference approach, which defines a QoL index as the monetary value of urban amenities. This paper proposes an innovative methodology to measure urban QoL when equity concerns arise. The standard approach is extended by introducing preferences for even accessibility to amenities throughout the city into the QoL assessment. The QoL index …
La Dolce Vita
Colombo E., Michelangeli A. and Stanca L. La dolce vita: hedonic estimates of quality of life in Italian cities, Regional Studies. This paper investigates quality of life in Italian cities using the hedonic approach. It analyses micro-level data for housing and labour markets to estimate compensating differentials for local amenities within four domains: weather, environment, services and society. Large compensating differentials in housing marke…

Detecting a Robust Change in Wealth Concentration without the Knowledge of the Wealth Distribution
Measuring the social value of local public goods
A non-linear hedonic model is used to estimate the implicit marginal prices of 17 local public goods in a Paris suburban area on an original data set of some 8200 housing units. The results reveal a robust effect of local public school quality (measured both by the fraction of junior high school students that are at least two years behind grade level and the student/teacher ratio) on house prices. It is observed that housing owners’ marginal will…
