Produktbeschreibung

This edited volume presents the latest findings from the 5th International Social Survey Programme (ISSP) Social Inequality module, a widely recognized dataset comprising responses from over 30 countries. It explores global perspectives on social inequality, including topics such as public views on taxation, government redistribution, personal experiences of inequality, and related themes. The chapters provide valuable insights into how attitudes toward inequality have evolved since they were first studied comparatively in the late 1980s. The chapters in this book demonstrate how international scholars are using these data to shed new light on beliefs about inequality and inspire further research into societal attitudes worldwide. The chapters in this book were originally published in the International Journal of Sociology.
