🥁 New paper in BJPS @bjpols.bsky.social 🥁

While there has been a lot of great research on how technological change shapes social policy preferences, I argue with Patrick Emmenegger and @ndurazzi.bsky.social that this literature is missing an important link: the role of skills, notably dual VET.

BJPolS abstract discussing the impact of technological change on social policy preferences. It examines dual vocational education and training (VET), suggesting that dual VET reduces the demand for compensatory social policy. The findings are based on data from the European Social Survey and material from education systems.

The BBC has footage of masked Israeli settlers attacking a Palestinian farm and burning vehicles and cars.

"Locals say this is happening almost every day now, and these are the tactics settlers are using to take the land, field by field." www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
