This seminar addresses the question of why economic resources are more evenly distributed in some countries than in other countries. Institutions such as the education system, the labour market or the welfare state help to structure how economic resources are distributed between individuals (inter-personally) and over the life course (inter-temporally). These institutions are structured differently in different countries; these specific configurations thus influence the different configurations between social and economic inequality, mobility and redistribution: they (re)distribute life chances. Among other questions, we will investigate the relationship between income inequality and upward mobility and how this relationship is moderated by institutions. The seminar provides an overview of the theoretical connections and empirical findings on the role of institutions in comparative welfare state research.
