Voting for redistribution in times of economic crisis: does the effect of redistributive preferences change in scarcity times?
While there is a lot of research about how redistributive preferences change in times of economic crisis, and some studies about how those preferences shape party voting, there are no investigations about how the effect of redistributive preferences over vot-ing changes in time of economic crisis. This paper fills this gap, expecting that in times of economic crisis the effect of redistributive preferences over voting increases, since economic issues become more relevant. To do so, I analyze rounds 1 to 9 from the European Social Survey, combining this data with the Comparative Manifesto Pro-ject.
