Тема: "Social Identi…fication and Redistribution under Multilevel Governance: Theory and Evidence from Germany"
Авторы: Joshua Holm and Benny Geys

Аннотация: 
Within multilevel governance structures, redistribution of resources to accommodate income heterogeneity within the federation is often fi…ercely debated. In this article, we build on social identity theory to develop a theoretical framework linking jurisdictional identi…cation and preferences towards intra-federation redistributive fi…nancial ‡flows. We show that federal, rather than local, identi…cation can lead individuals to shift their redistribution preferences in a direction at odds with their narrowly-defi…ned personal economic interest.   Speci…cally, it decreases  support for redistribution among poorer individuals in poorer regions, but increases it among richer individuals in richer regions. Individual-level survey data from the 2008 German General Social Survey (ALLBUS) support these predictions.
