DESCRIPTION:Regional economic conditions affect livelihoods and the geogra
 phy of political  resentment. Yet\, individuals do not equally partake in 
 their region’s economic  fortunes\, and their perceptions of relative de
 privation need not be the same.  Grievances are likely to be shaped not on
 ly by income disparities but also by  how personal prospects are tied to r
 egional conditions. We argue that the interaction between subjective indiv
 idual and regional relative deprivation crucially  affects perceptions of 
 shared experience and systemic unfairness. Through a  large-scale survey e
 xperiment in Britain\, we provide causal evidence that poor  individuals i
 n poor regions express more political resentment due to diminished persona
 l financial prospects and social status. In contrast\, political attitudes
  among poor and wealthy individuals are indistinguishable in affluent regi
 ons. Our findings reveal how reference groups affect subjective perception
 s  of relative deprivation and highlight the importance of egocentric mech
 anisms\, whereby the local economy shapes expectations of individual prosp
 ects.\nSpeakers:\nSergi Pardos-Prado (University of Glasgow)
