"Whether a young person can afford to buy a house and live in relative comfort is determined by inherited wealth nearly as much as it is by their own success at work."

If you want a good life, inheriting is becoming nearly as important as working. That is dangerous for capitalism and society econ.st/3QDUfYu

Post- #China shock relative consumption loss of the European middle classes and the associated perceived risk of societal decline can explain the large success of #right-wing political radicalism in the last three decades.

The literature on the economic origins of political radicalism revolves largely around the ‘China shock’. Yet, trade not only causes shifts in the labour market but can also affect living standards via the expenditure channel. This column shows that the relative consumption loss of the European middle classes, who benefit less than low-income consumers from cheap imports from China, and the associated perceived risk of societal decline can explain the large success of right-wing political radicalism in the last three decades, above and beyond standard effects on the supply side.

Petit extrait de ce qu'on y apprend, le troisième chiffre va vous étonner. 🧵⏬ (1/7)
