abstract: 'argue that the structure of income inequality, rather than its level,
can explain differences in fiscal redistribution across modern welfare
states. Contrary to the assertion that there is robust evidence in
support of this proposition, the present article challenges the argument
that the distributional allegiances between social groups are a function
of relative income distances. It makes three central claims: (a) skew in
the earnings distribution, the key explanatory variable in the empirical
tests of the original paper, can best be understood as an outcome of
public policy and labor market institutions, and hence as endogenous to
the welfare state; (b) relative earnings differentials are not a valid
proxy measure for the structure of income inequality, the concept of
theoretical interest; and (c) there is no indication that skew in the
distribution of incomes (rather than earnings) is positively associated
with fiscal redistribution. In sum, revisiting an influential
contribution to the literature offers no support for the proposition
that the structure of inequality has consequences for fiscal
redistribution.'
