A large body of often rather complex findings on intergenerational social mobility has by now come into existence but theoretical development has not kept pace. In this paper, focusing specifically on class mobility in European nations and the US, we aim, first of all, to identify the main empirical regularities that have emerged from research, making the now standard distinction between absolute and relative mobility. Next, we review previous theories of mobility, leading up to what we label as the liberal theory, and we note the difficulties now evident with the latter, associated with its functionalist basis. We then set out our own theory of intergenerational class mobility, grounded in the subjectively rational courses of action followed by the various actors involved. We seek to show how the empirical regularities described can in this way be accounted for, while pointing to additional evidence that supports the theory but also to ways in which it is open to further empirical test. Finally, we consider some more general implications of the theory and, on this basis, venture a number of – conditional – predictions on the future of class mobility in more advanced societies.
关于代际社会流动的大量研究结果目前已经出现,但理论发展却没有跟上。在本文中,我们特别关注欧洲国家和美国的阶级流动性,我们的目标是,首先,确定研究中出现的主要经验规律,对绝对流动性和相对流动性进行现在的标准区分。接下来,我们回顾之前的流动性理论,这些理论导致了我们称之为自由主义的理论,我们注意到后者的困难,这与它的功能主义基础有关。然后,我们提出了我们自己的代际阶级流动理论,该理论以主观理性的行动路线为基础,这些行动路线由涉及的各种行动者遵循。我们试图展示如何以这种方式解释所描述的经验规律,同时指出支持该理论的其他证据,同时也指出了对进一步的经验检验开放的方式。最后,我们考虑了该理论的一些更普遍的含义,并在此基础上,大胆地对更先进社会中阶级流动性的未来进行了一些有条件的预测。

Efficiency loss and support for income redistribution: Evidence from a laboratory experiment 效率损失和对收入再分配的支持:来自实验室实验的证据

Income redistribution with an efficiency loss is expected to have a twofold negative effect on support for redistribution, as it lowers egoistic support for redistribution and activates efficiency preferences. This study tests whether such a negative relationship exists, increases with the size of efficiency loss and interacts with group communication and the income position. We present a laboratory experiment in which subjects receive a randomly allocated income and must coordinate on a majority tax rate using a deliberative communication tool. The rate of money lost as a part of the redistribution process is manipulated as a treatment variable (0%, 5%, 20%, or 60%). Experimental evidence shows that efficiency loss exerts a robust negative effect on support for redistribution. The effect shows a tipping point pattern, is stronger at the lower end of the income distribution and is not fully explained by egoistic preferences. Inefficiency matters mostly for the chosen tax rate after group communication. At an efficiency loss of 60%, however, group communication does not affect support for redistribution, which implies that inefficiencies tend to play a minor role in the context of redistribution as long as they are within a moderate range. JEL Classification: C91, C92, D63, D72
具有效率损失的收入再分配预计会对再分配的支持产生双重负面影响,因为它降低了对再分配的利己主义支持,并激活了效率偏好。本研究检验了这种负相关关系是否存在,并随着效率损失的大小而增加,并与群体沟通和收入状况相互作用。我们提出了一个实验室实验,在该实验中,受试者获得随机分配的收入,并且必须使用协商沟通工具协调多数税率。作为再分配过程的一部分,金钱损失率被作为一个处理变量(0%、5%、20%或60%)来操纵。实验证据表明,效率损失对再分配的支持产生了强烈的负面影响。这种效应显示出一种临界点模式,在收入分配的低端更强,并且不能完全用利己主义偏好来解释。效率低下主要是因为小组沟通后选择的税率。然而,在效率损失60%的情况下,群体沟通不会影响对再分配的支持,这意味着,只要效率在适度范围内,效率低下在再分配的背景下往往会发挥次要作用。JEL分类:C91、C92、D63、D72

Faith struggles in science: Academic schools as religious sects 科学中的信仰斗争:作为宗教派别的学术学校

Particularly in the social sciences, scientific debates can be understood as a special expression of academic discourse and ideally support the progress of knowledge within a discipline. Very often, there are competing academic schools with greatly differing theoretical foundations, as we have seen, for example, in social sciences-especially by the “Methodenstreit” in economics, or the “Positivismusstreit” in Sociology. This paper aims to introduce a new approach to study academic schools and would like to contribute to the literature on the economics of science. To this end, the paper uses the economic theory of religion in general and the economics of sects in particular by transferring the approach to academic schools for the first time. Our results can help to extend the understanding of scientific decision-making and to explain the membership to an academic school. Although the model is presented in relationship to social sciences in general and economics in particular, the basic model of academic schools is generally transferable.

特别是在社会科学中,科学辩论可以被理解为学术话语的一种特殊表达,理想情况下支持学科内的知识进步。很多时候,有相互竞争的学术流派,它们有着截然不同的理论基础,例如,我们在社会科学中看到的,特别是经济学中的“方法论”或社会学中的“实证主义”。本文旨在介绍一种研究学术流派的新方法,并希望为科学经济学文献做出贡献。为此,本文运用了一般的宗教经济学理论,特别是教派经济学,首次将这一方法转移到学术流派。我们的研究结果有助于扩展对科学决策的理解,并解释学术学校的成员资格。尽管该模型通常与社会科学特别是经济学有关,但学院的基本模型通常是可转移的。JEL分类:A12、B13、B21、B40、B53、Z12

The clear expectation of cultural betterment in the face of rising living standards 面对不断提高的生活水平,对文化改善的明确期望

Rising Real Gross Domestic Product Per Capita data indicates rises in living standards. Nonetheless, cultural pessimism is the received view. This paper makes a series of arguments that we should expect our cultural products (e.g. art or cuisine) to be on an upwards trajectory, just as RGDP per capita is. To do so, I expand on Bill James’s “Peripheral Quality Indicia” in order to argue that analogous indicators for our cultural products strongly suggest that they have improved. I also claim that RGDP per capita is itself a peripheral quality indicium for essentially any good in the economy. I then sketch the conditions under which cultural products are actually lower in quality today than they were in previous periods in order to demonstrate the general unlikelihood of quality declining.
人均实际国内生产总值的增长数据表明生活水平的提高。尽管如此,人们普遍认为文化悲观主义。本文提出了一系列论点,即我们应该期望我们的文化产品(如艺术或美食)像人均RGDP一样处于上升轨道。为此,我扩展了Bill James的“外围质量指标”,以证明我们文化产品的类似指标强烈表明它们已经改善。我还声称,人均RGDP本身就是经济中任何商品的外围质量指标。然后,我勾勒出当今文化产品质量实际上低于前一时期的条件,以证明质量下降的可能性普遍不大。

Heterogeneous coalitions and social revolutions 异质联盟与社会革命

We have explained the presence of heterogeneous winning coalitions in social revolutions. In an overcrowded agrarian society, two almost identical non-productive enforcers, the landed political elite, collude and bargain over transfers with one of the two peasants to contest over a piece of land, as property rights for land are not well defined. In any other scenario, neither the grand coalition nor the coalition of two peasants and one enforcer forms, thereby deposing the other enforcer with positive probability. So, social revolutions never occur. If foreign wars weaken an enforcer, such as in China (1911), France, and Russia, adding one unit of capital makes the coalition of the peasant, the now worker, and one of the enforcers (now an industrial political elite) attractive: The excess labor can work with it; the weaker enforcer retaliates less and the stronger one more, if excluded. However, if the weaker one (the still-landed political elite) proposes first, a grand coalition forms in which he or she gets less than the other members do (desertion). There is conflict among peasants and among landed elites; thus, the concept of a coalition is more appropriate than that of a class.
我们已经解释了在社会革命中存在的异质性获胜联盟。在一个过度拥挤的农业社会中,两个几乎完全相同的非生产性执行者,即土地政治精英,与两名农民中的一名串通并讨价还价,争夺一块土地,因为土地的产权没有得到很好的界定。在任何其他情况下,无论是大联盟还是两个农民和一个执行者的联盟,都不会形成,从而以正概率罢免另一个执行器。因此,社会革命从未发生过。如果外国战争削弱了一个执行者,比如在中国(1911年)、法国和俄罗斯,增加一个单位的资本会使农民、现在的工人和执行者之一(现在的工业政治精英)的联盟具有吸引力:多余的劳动力可以与之合作;如果被排除在外,实力较弱的执法者报复更少,实力较强的执法者更多。然而,如果较弱的一方(仍有土地的政治精英)首先提出,就会形成一个大联盟,在这个联盟中,他或她得到的比其他成员少(逃兵)。农民和土地精英之间存在冲突;因此,联盟的概念比阶级的概念更合适。

How can I help you? Multiple resource availability promotes generosity with low-value (but not high-value) resources 我能为您做些什么?多资源可用性促进了对低价值(但不是高价值)资源的慷慨

People commonly possess multiple, differentially-valued resources they can use to benefit those in need: contributing money, volunteering time, donating unwanted possessions, posting on social media to raise awareness, and more. But the majority of experimental work on generosity and helping behavior has studied giving when only a single valuable resource is available to give. This project considers: when people have multiple, differentially-valued resources to use to benefit a dependent other, which resources will they use to help, and how much? Results from an experiment show, first, that generosity is higher with lower-value resources. More importantly, when multiple, differentially-valued resources are available to use to benefit others, helping is higher than when a single resource is available, all else being equal. This is because when multiple resources are available, people are especially willing to give away their relatively lower-value resources. Put differently, when people can benefit others using multiple resources, they are more likely to consider how they should help, rather than whether they should.
人们通常拥有多种不同价值的资源,可以用来帮助那些需要帮助的人:捐款、志愿服务、捐赠不想要的东西、在社交媒体上发帖以提高意识等等。但是,大多数关于慷慨和帮助行为的实验研究都是在只有一种有价值的资源可供捐赠时进行的。这个项目考虑的是:当人们有多种不同价值的资源可以用来帮助另一个依赖的人时,他们会用哪些资源来帮助,用多少?一项实验结果表明,首先,资源价值越低,慷慨程度越高。更重要的是,当多个不同价值的资源可用来造福他人时,在其他条件相同的情况下,帮助的作用要高于单一资源可用时的作用。这是因为当有多种资源可用时,人们特别愿意放弃价值相对较低的资源。换句话说,当人们可以利用多种资源造福他人时,他们更有可能考虑他们应该如何帮助,而不是是否应该帮助。

Populism and the rational choice model: The case of the French National Front 民粹主义与理性选择模式——以法国国民阵线为例

This article proposes a general model of partisan political dealignment based on the theory of expressive voting. It is based on the Riker and Odershook equation. Voters cast a ballot for a political party if the utility associated with expressing their support for it is more than their expressive costs. Expressive utility is modeled here as a certain utility model. Then, the model is applied to the rise of voting support in favor of French right-wing populists, the National Front (FN). We show that the fall of justification costs of FN ideology along with the decline in stigmatization costs of voting in favor of the extreme right has fostered the popularity of this party. Political dealignment here is only a particular case of a general process of political norms transgression inherited by each voter.
本文基于表达投票理论,提出了一个党派政治协商的一般模型。它是基于里克和奥德舒克方程。如果与表达他们对政党的支持相关的效用超过了他们的表达成本,选民就会投票给政党。表达型实用新型在这里被建模为某种实用新型。然后,将该模型应用于支持法国右翼民粹主义者国民阵线(FN)的投票支持率上升。我们表明,新生力量意识形态的辩护成本下降,以及投票支持极右翼的污名化成本下降,促进了该党的受欢迎程度。这里的政治交易只是每个选民继承的违反政治规范的一般过程中的一个特例。

Relative risk aversion models: How plausible are their assumptions? 相对风险厌恶模型:它们的假设有多可信?

This work examines the validity of the two main assumptions of relative risk-aversion models of educational inequality. We compare the Breen-Goldthorpe (BG) and the Breen-Yaish (BY) models in terms of their assumptions about status maintenance motives and beliefs about the occupational risks associated with educational decisions. Concerning the first assumption, our contribution is threefold. First, we criticise the assumption of the BG model that families aim only at avoiding downward mobility and are insensitive to the prospects of upward mobility. We argue that the loss-aversion assumption proposed by BY is a more realistic formulation of status-maintenance motives. Second, we propose and implement a novel empirical approach to assess the validity of the loss-aversion assumption. Third, we present empirical results based on a sample of families of lower secondary school leavers indicating that families are sensitive to the prospects of both upward and downward mobility, and that the loss-aversion hypothesis of BY is empirically supported. As regards the risky choice assumption, we argue that families may not believe that more ambitious educational options entail occupational risks relative to less ambitious ones. We present empirical evidence indicating that, in France, the academic path is not perceived as a risky option. We conclude that, if the restrictive assumptions of the BG model are removed, relative-risk aversion needs not drive educational inequalities.
这项工作检验了教育不平等的相对风险厌恶模型的两个主要假设的有效性。我们比较了Breen-Goldthorpe (BG)和Breen-Yaish (BY)模型对地位维持动机的假设和对与教育决策相关的职业风险的信念。关于第一个假设,我们的贡献是三重的。首先,我们批评BG模型的假设,即家庭的目标只是避免向下流动,而对向上流动的前景不敏感。我们认为by提出的损失厌恶假设是一种更现实的状态维持动机的表述。其次,我们提出并实施了一种新的实证方法来评估损失厌恶假设的有效性。第三,基于初中毕业生家庭样本的实证结果表明,家庭对向上和向下流动的前景都很敏感,并且BY的损失厌恶假设得到了实证支持。关于风险选择假设,我们认为家庭可能不相信更雄心勃勃的教育选择相对于不那么雄心勃勃的教育选择会带来职业风险。我们提出的经验证据表明,在法国,学术道路并不被视为一个有风险的选择。我们的结论是,如果移除BG模型的限制性假设,相对风险厌恶不一定会推动教育不平等。

We compare the Breen-Goldthorpe (BG) and the Breen-Yaish (BY) models in terms of their assumptions about status maintenance motives and beliefs about the occupational risks associated with educational decisions. Concerning the first assumption, our contribution is threefold. First, we criticise the assumption of the BG model that families aim only at avoiding downward mobility and are insensitive to the prospects of upward mobility. We argue that the loss-aversion assumption proposed by BY is a more realistic formulation of status-maintenance motives. Second, we propose and implement a novel empirical approach to assess the validity of the loss-aversion assumption. Third, we present empirical results based on a sample of families of lower secondary school leavers indicating that families are sensitive to the prospects of both upward and downward mobility, and that the loss-aversion hypothesis of BY is empirically supported. As regards the risky choice assumption, we argue that families may not believe that more ambitious educational options entail occupational risks relative to less ambitious ones. We present empirical evidence indicating that, in France, the academic path is not perceived as a risky option.

Non-state order and strategic communication via symbolic dress in Yemen 也门非国家秩序与象征性服饰战略沟通

How do people keep order in weak states? Formal institutions provide law and order in rich societies, but are feeble and capricious in much of the developing world. Instead, people turn to informal, group-based order that operates through reputation and contingent cooperation. Such order requires people to police social boundaries and contributions, looking for costly signals of membership and commitment to weed out mimics and shirkers. Data from Yemen show that people rely on tribes for security and dispute resolution under customary law. Yemenis use a prominent symbol of tribalism, the iconic tribal dagger, to communicate their affiliations and commitments to their customary responsibilities. Yet people vary in how well they understand the semiotic system, and the accuracy of the link between dagger-wearing and tribalism improves with sophistication. While the most knowledgeable Yemenis reveal their tribal types with the dagger, the least knowledgeable communicate nothing at all.
在弱国,人们是如何维持秩序的?正规机构在富裕社会提供法律和秩序,但在许多发展中国家却软弱多变。相反,人们转向非正式的、基于群体的秩序,通过声誉和偶然的合作来运作。这种秩序要求人们监督社会界限和贡献,寻找代价高昂的成员身份和承诺信号,以清除模仿者和逃避者。来自也门的数据显示,根据习惯法,人们依靠部落来实现安全和争端解决。也门人使用部落主义的一个突出象征,即标志性的部落匕首,来传达他们的从属关系和对习惯责任的承诺。然而,人们对符号系统的理解程度各不相同,戴匕首和部落主义之间联系的准确性随着复杂程度的提高而提高。虽然知识最渊博的也门人用匕首揭示了他们的部落类型,但知识最少的也门人什么也不交流。
