High levels of economic inequality are widely viewed as a key challenge facing bothadvanced industrial and developing economies. Country-level studies have consistentlyshown a negative link between income inequality and trust in others. This is typicallyattributed to greater social distance within unequal societies. Do we observe similarrelationships within organisations? This is an important ques
Management scholarship is beginning to grapple with the growing popularity of machine learning (ML) as an analytical tool. While quantitative research in our discipline remains heavily influenced by positivist thinking and statistical modelling underpinned by null hypothesis significance testing, ML is increasingly used to solve technical, computationally demanding problems. In this paper, we argu
At the end of September, David Malpass, the president of the World Bank, was heavily criticized after failing to acknowledge anthropogenic climate change [henceforth called climate change (1)]. Although he later apologized for and revised his remarks, they sparked a renewed public debate on the existence of climate changedeniers and their impact on our transition toward a more sustainable future (
Decarbonization policies require public support to be implemented and to remain in legislation. Examinations of public support for climate policies tend to focus on asmall number of policy instruments and/or use hypothetical instead of real policy proposals. Here, we address these criticisms by examining public support acrossfour distinct policy instruments– command-and-control, market-based, info
Understanding predictors of climate policy support is important for tackling climate change. Previous research demonstrated that policy support is partially driven by cultural worldviews. Yet, treating policies as a homogeneous concept, this literature neglected the existence of different policy types. Making this distinction is important because each type implies a distinct solution to the same p
Die Studie beruht auf einer repräsentativen Beschäftigtenumfrage. Die Erhebung dokumentiert erstmals mit einem Fokus auf Beschäftigte, wie diese über den Klimawandel unddie anstehende sozial-ökologische Transformation denken. Sie zeigt, dass sich Beschäftigte in der Tendenz gut informiert fühlen und zugleich sehr besorgt über den Klimawandel sind. Viele sehen eine hohe Dringlichkeit für Maßnahmen
Anhand einer repräsentativen Umfrage unter Beschäftigten analysiert das vorliegende Paper die Zustimmung zu energiepolitischen Maßnahmen und die Wahrnehmung sozioökonomischer Folgen entlang politischer Parteipräferenzen. Zwischen den parteipolitischen Linien „Mitte links“ (SPD, Grüne, Die Linke), „Mitte rechts“ (CDU/CSU, FDP) und „populistisch“ (BSW, AfD) finden sich deutliche Unterschiede, aber ü
AI-enabled technologies are developing rapidly, but the first wave of the Digit Employers’ Digital Practices at Work Survey (2021-22) showed that their use by firms is not yet widespread. This Data Commentary presents findings from the second wave of the Survey, conducted during 2023, based on responses from 1,150 firms.The findings show that adoption of AI-enabled technologies by UK firms remains
We have access to ever-increasing amounts of digital data. Yet we know little about how digital technologies are transforming employers’ work practices in British firms. This is because we lack representative, reliable data about these practices at the organisation-level. Existing data tend to:draw from independent consultancy projects and reports;be relatively narrow in scope or rely on potential
