Public support for redistribution: what explains cross-national differences? (2010, positive): “It is argued that redistribution attitudes are not just driven by self interest, but are rather expressions of ideas or belief systems (Blekesaune and Quadagno, 2003; Linos and West, 2003).”
The effect of macroeconomic and social conditions on the demand for redistribution: A pseudo panel approach (2013, positive): “…of countries’ institutional arrangements (for example, the way the welfare state is organised) and their political and cultural history (for example, the power of left-wing parties and religious composition; for example, Esping-Andersen, 1990; Jæger, 2006b; Linos and West, 2003; Svallfors, 1997).”
