SOCIAL IDENTITY AND REDISTRIBUTIVE PREFERENCES: A SURVEY
调查了经济学如何衡量社会认同及其对再分配偏好、社会团结和再分配制度态度的影响,实证表明社会认同在解释社会偏好和再分配制度态度中起重要作用。
Abstract Social identity has become accepted as a key concept underpinning the endogeneity of economic behaviour and preferences. It is important in explaining attitudes towards redistribution and pro‐social behaviour. We examine how economic theory measures social identity and its effects on preferences towards redistribution, social solidarity and redistributive institutions. Empirical evidence indicates that social identity carries weight in explaining the presence of social preferences and attitudes towards redistributive institutions.
