Preferences for redistribution
综述了关于再分配偏好的文献,涵盖测量方法及制度、人口、公平观等决定因素,发现收入不平等是最重要的影响因素之一。
Abstract We survey the literature on preferences for redistribution. We discuss different ways the literature has measured these preferences and review literature on the different determinants of preferences for redistribution. These range from institutions and demographic factors to fairness views and social preferences. Income inequality is, perhaps unsurprisingly, one of the most important determinants of preferences for redistribution. While our survey is largely focused on the economics literature, we also review some work from political science, sociology, and psychology.
