This project is a collaboration between the Shanker Institute and the Polish Academy of Sciences. The purpose is to submit a research grant proposal for a longitudinal analysis of attitudes toward redistributive policies, inequality and progressive taxation, with a particular focus on post-Communist Poland. 

The preliminary results from one part of this project were presented at the midterm conference of the European Sociological Association (RN 36) in October 2014 in Gdansk, Poland, and then at the summer conference of the Social Stratification and Mobility section (RC28) of the International Sociological Association in August 2015 in Philadelphia, PA.
