New paper out in the @thejop.bsky.social (w/ @christinagahn.bsky.social)
Do opinion polls shape election results?

New blog post with @ndurazzi.bsky.social & Patrick Emmenegger for @lseeuroppblog.bsky.social. We argue based on three recent articles that vocational training still remains a viable policy option for boosting growth and containing inequality. Article links below ⏬
1) Even in advanced knowledge economies, dual VET remains associated with lower wage inequality: doi.org/10.1177/0958...
3) Dual VET graduates are less concerned about technological change and less supportive of redistribution than individuals with comparable levels of education: doi.org/10.1017/S000...

Some quick thought on what this means for the way we communicate science: time to kill the peer reviewed article?
