Zodra mensen het gevoel hebben dat de ongelijkheid de afgelopen vier jaar is toegenomen, zijn ze gemiddeld acht procent minder tevreden met hun leven. Dat vinden Marchesi et al. https://t.co/V75g6GBUko

[University of Groningen @univgroningen]

People have different motivations to work: to earn money, as a step in your career, and/or as something that provides a sense of purpose 💼

Milena Nikolova (@milenkanik, @UniGroningenFEB) argues that these motivations can explain work behaviour👇

How perceived inequality shapes well-being

"In an era where misinformation can easily skew public views, understanding the origins and consequences of these beliefs is as vital as tackling the inequalities themselves."

Short commentary available @IZAWorldofLabor

[World Inequality Lab | WID.world @WIL_inequality]

While academic literature differentiates between #income and #wealth inequality/taxation, this distinction isn’t clear to the general public and has little effect on their policy preferences in 🇳🇱

This semester I've been teaching "Economic Inequality and Growth" at @UCBerkeley. This is a thread with some of my favorite graphs.

First, the headline everyone's-seen-it graph: falling then rising income inequality in Anglophone countries.

UK spends more financing inequality in favour of rich than rest of Europe, report finds https://t.co/0nQPz6T6tt

[Daniele Marchesi @DanMarchesi]

And yet we continue to hear meritocracy being used as a synonym for equality

[Faiza Shaheen @faizashaheen]

For years we’ve been promised a more socially mobile society, but policy makers always side-step tackling wealth inequality. Currently low income kids start with 230 times less than the rich, and we expect underfunded schools to make up the difference! https://t.co/rwm4xouo91
