Behavioral nudges in Facebook ads encouraged Covid-19 vaccine signup across six diverse countries. The ads reached nearly 14 million people and, consequently, many thousands took the concrete step of navigating to governments' vaccine signup sites. However, none of the treatment ads caused significantly more vaccine signup than placebo across all c...
The literature on welfare chauvinism suggests that dominant majorities are less likely to support redistribution across identity lines. To encourage support, scholarship recommends designing policies universally and signaling beneficiary deservingness. However, policies that support disadvantaged groups cannot always be designed universally. Moreov...
The literature suggests ethnic diversity has a negative effect on development. Yet, we also know that government policies—e.g., recognizing multiple languages in minority-sizable areas—can attenuate these effects. In this paper, we ask: What are the socioeconomic implications of minority language recognition? We leverage a legal stipulation in Roma...
The literature on welfare chauvinism shows that ethnocentrism reduces support for outgroup redistribution. To limit bias, scholarship suggests framing policies universally or addressing beneficiary deservingness. However, policies to support disadvantaged groups and ensure equity cannot always be framed in universal terms. Moreover, dominant groups...
Evaluations of beneficiary groups matter for individual levels of policy support. A variety of cues and heuristics shape evaluations. One particularly consequential heuristic concerns the beneficiary’s perceived level of humanity. Recent work shows that individuals, individuals within groups (group compositions), and unitary groups evoke different...
The territoriality principle stipulates that minority communities in a given territory should be linguistically accommodated. What are the economic effects of this principle? In this paper, we argue that the recognition of multiple languages confers respect on the minority group; it allows people to engage and participate meaningfully in society –...
Perceptions of social norms can have downstream consequences for attitudes and behaviors, especially when it comes to the acceptance of marginalized groups. While interventions focusing on social norms may boost tolerance, few studies test whether variations in norm communication affect individuals’ perceptions. Thus, in this paper, we test the eff...
Censuses ask individuals to identify their own ethnicity. Minorities, however, may be reluctant to self-identify; and thus, censuses may underreport minority populations, raising concerns about measurement validity. We identify and measure the extent of this concern by matching census data on Romas in Romania against a nationwide survey of 2800 mun...
Why do voters in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) vote for Euroskeptic political parties? Existing explanations of Euroskepticism suggest that those benefiting economically due to the European Union (EU) are less likely to be Euroskeptic. These approaches fail to take into account the social purpose of EU economic transfers. I argue that the minori...

... Romania is home to multiple minority ethnic groups-who collectively constitute more than 10% of the country's population. The census recognizes 19 minority groups, including a large Hungarian population-a legacy of World War I (Csata et al. 2021b). In addition to the Hungarians, there is a significant Roma populationsubject to systemic discrimination, as elsewhere in Europe (Csata et al. 2021a). ...

... In Europe, "Roma" and "Romani" are terms to describe people who self-identify as Roma, Gypsy, Sinti, Travelers, Ashkali, Manush, Dom, and Lom (1). The Roma represent one of the largest and most vulnerable minority groups in Europe (2,3). The number of Roma is difficult to quantify (3). ...
... One key strategy of the European Union (EU) to foster European integration is by improving citizens' quality of life, mitigating regional disparities, and enhancing the economic well-being of European regions via its regional policy, today known as Cohesion Policy (CP). 1 Even though CP accounts for almost one-third of the EU's annual budget (George and Bache, 2001, p. 303), citizens' awareness of CP is only slowly increasing over the last years (Hlatky, 2021;Schraff, 2019, p. 88). Whereas there is still a huge discussion in the literature about the extent CP increases citizens' awareness of CP and their support for the EU (for example Chalmers and Dellmuth, 2015;Dellmuth and Chalmers, 2018;Dąbrowski et al., 2019;López-Bazo and Royuela, 2019;López-Bazo, forthcoming), this study focuses on political parties as important intermediary actors in the process of European integration by linking EU policies to the citizens. ...
