In this paper we propose different criteria to rank income distributions according to equality of opportunity. Different from existing ones, our criteria explicitly recognize the interplay between circumstances and effort.

This paper addresses the question of the institutional flexibility of three major European welfare states. Using Data from the second and fifth wave of the Luxembourg Income Study (LIS), we measure first how effectively the German, British and Italian welfare state have responded to changes in their country-specific poverty risks profile. Further, we apply a macro-simulation to evaluate the performance ...

Using German panel data, we identify tax effects on the portfolio ...
