Tenure regimes and remoteness: When does forest income reduce poverty and inequality? A case study from the Peruvian Amazon KU Leuven
Common property in Latin America is mostly managed by indigenous populations, which are in most of the cases located in remote settlements. Tenure regimes and remoteness are considered to influence the amount of income and type of products extracted from forests. Most of the previous studies could not assess to what extent the contribution of forests to livelihoods is mediated by either tenure regimes or remoteness. Current research at-tempts to ...
Gender Inequality in Sport Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Research on Generation Z’s (Gen Z) sport education is limited in scope. This study explores Gen Z’s perceptions of gender equity in sport, with a focus on topic areas that warrant attention in sport management higher education courses to increase awareness around gender inequality. This study of Gen Z students across four European countries, including Belgium, Norway, Netherlands and England, was conducted through eight focus groups. The 54 ...
Inequality in volunteering : building a new research front Universiteit Gent
Economic inequality increases the number of hours worked and decreases work-life balance perceptions : longitudinal and experimental evidence Universiteit Gent
International institutions' attention to work-life balance (WLB) demonstrates the global breadth of this issue. Yet the scientific community has thus far paid little attention to its structural underpinnings and to the interplay between these macro-level underpinnings and individual psychological factors. We examine the contextual role of economic inequality at the national level as a significant factor influencing working time and WLB ...
People weigh salaries more than ratios in judgments of income inequality, fairness, and demands for redistribution Universiteit Gent
Five experiments (total n = 2422, with U.S. American and French participants, four preregistered) show that people are more likely to use median salaries rather than CEO-median employee compensation ratios when making inequality and fairness judgments based on company compensation data. In separate evaluation of companies, we find no significant impact of compensation ratios, which express objective levels of income inequality, but a significant ...
Reverse integral Hardy inequality on metric measure spaces Universiteit Gent
In this note, we obtain a reverse version of the integral Hardy inequality on metric measure spaces. Moreover, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the weighted reverse Hardy inequality to be true. The main tool in our proof is a continuous version of the reverse Minkowski inequality. In addition, we present some consequences of the obtained reverse Hardy inequality on the homogeneous groups, hyperbolic spaces and Cartan-Hadamard ...
Understanding digital inequality: the interplay between parental socialisation and children's development Vrije Universiteit Brussel
All across Europe, both the restructuring of the economy and the immigration of new citizens from disadvantaged countries show that relations of inequality are dynamic, but still persistent. Given the diversity of European countries, in social, cultural and economic terms, the gap between the rich and the poor arises in various forms and degrees. At the same time social inequalities within countries are still a key concern of social politics. In ...
