Richer (and Holier) Than Thou? The Effect of Relative Income Improvements on Demand for Redistribution (2017, unknown): “Even though many studies provide evidence of self-interested political preferences and pocket-book voting (Peltzman, 1985; Durante et al., 2014; Elinder et al., 2010; Powdthavee and Oswald, 2014; Margalit, 2013), evidence for socially motivated political preferences has also been documented (see e.”
Who Gives, Who Gains? Progressivity and Preferences (2016, background): “Because it is plausible that attitudes toward government intervention are shaped by ideology (Margalit, 2013) or dominant (left) parties and unions, we include control variables for left party dominance (cumulative share of cabinet posts for left parties).”
High-skilled outsiders? Labor market vulnerability, education and welfare state preferences (2015, background): “The link between individuals’ situation in the labor market and their preferences for social policy has become a crucial area of research over the past years (Rueda, 2007; Rehm, 2009; Margalit, 2013), especially as labor market risks are increasingly unequally distributed between labor market inside”

Will we have the same employees in hospitality after all? The impact of COVID-19 on employees’ work attitudes and turnover intentions (2020, unknown): “Research done before and throughout the crisis like Great Recession showed that job insecurity was significantly increased, while job satisfaction was reduced and this situation lasted for as many as several years after the recession had been finished (Margalit, 2013).”
