In my new blog post for the @lseblogs.bsky.social, I explore whether exhaustion with rapid societal change is linked to something more unsettling: ressentiment - a bitterness that seeps into social life. Evidence from Germany connects it to right-wing populism. blogs.lse.ac.uk/researchings...

With conscription again under debate, @ivancanzio.bsky.social and I examined how conscription was institutionalized across 18 European countries and assessed how its suspension was associated with men’s early-career occupational placement.
Title page and abstractTable comparing conscription policies across 18 European countries, including suspension year, cohort exposure, service rates, conscientious objection, and service duration.
Coefficient plot showing positive associations between having served in the military and later work in armed forces, skill/license-related, and male-dominated occupations.
Difference-in-differences coefficient plot showing modest negative estimates of conscription suspension on men’s work in armed forces, skill/license-related, and male-dominated occupations.

Businesses, associations, and places of worship are key aspects of immigrant community life. Why do some groups build dense organizational ecologies but others don’t? A new analysis of 25,117 ethnoreligious organizations in 4900 communities suggests that culture—not social structure—drives density

Wer kann in unserer Gesellschaft wie autonom über seine Arbeitszeit entscheiden? Der Soziologe Aljoscha Jacobi rückt in unserem Thesenpapier die Frage der Zeitsouveränität in den Mittelpunkt: zentrum-neue-sozialpolitik.org/publ…
Ein Mann mit Brille und einem karierten Sakko steht mit verschränkten Armen da und lächelt in die Kamera. Darüber ist der Text „Die Frage der Arbeitszeit ist ein Kernkonflikt moderner Gesellschaften“ gelegt. Die Kachel verweist auf das Projekt ZEIT.RÄUME und den Namen „Aljoscha Jacobi“.

Do universal welfare states make social trust? Do means-testing ones break social trust? Using 2002-2019 cross-national data from Europe my short answer is: it depends on whom welfare-state programs are targeting! For a more detailed answer go and read my new JESP article: doi.org/10.1177/0958...

@schechtlm.bsky.social und ich zeigen (osf.io/preprints/so...), dass das deutsche Erbschafts- und Schenkungssteuerrecht in Verbindung mit geschlechterspezifischem elterlichen Transferverhalten zu einem Gender-Tax-Gap führt. Erklärt hier: www.zeit.de/geld/2023-10... #GenderSky #Sociology

Erbschaftssteuer: Warum Frauen weniger erben und trotzdem mehr Steuern zahlen
Egal, wie reich Frauen werden, Männer sind im Schnitt reicher. Das liegt nicht nur am Gender-Pay-Gap, sondern auch daran, wie die deutsche Steuer Frauen diskriminiert.

After it has been established that 'racial identification' is quite fluid (Agadjanian 2022), now 19% of respondents in France are suddenly being 'reborn' with French citizenship. These are indeed interesting times for sociologists...
