Subjective income and employment expectations and preferences for redistribution

Thomas Siedler and Helmut Rainer

No 2007-21, ISER Working Paper Series from Institute for Social and Economic Research

Abstract: Using probabilistic expectations data from the German Socio-Economic Panel, we establish a link between self-reported expectations of occupational mobility and preferences for redistribution. Our results provide new evidence on the validity of the “prospect of upward mobility” hypothesis.
