“…Although most studies focus on the effect on economic growth, some research shows insights into how particular reforms led to occasionally negative effects. Tomić (2020) finds that the liberalisation, pushed by EU accession, of employment protection for temporary and permanents contracts led to a rise in temporary employment. This article further develops these arguments empirically.…”

This article examines how the large shock in emigration following Croatia’s accession to the European Union affected local public finances. To do so, a difference in differences research design has been used on a balanced panel dataset of municipality level observations over a ten-year period. The areas that experienced the largest emigration in the post 2014 period saw a large negative decrease in total tax revenue over the subsequent years, mainly driven by income tax revenue decrease. The results of this research warn that large emigration flows can lead to a cycle of economic degeneration as local areas lose fiscal revenue to spend on local services, in turn making them less likely to attract citizens.

“…On the other hand, high tax rates can create disincentives to work and cause unemployment or an inactivity trap (Tomić, 2020). Moreover, high tax wedges make unemployment and work in the informal sector more attractive (Behar, 2009).…”

This paper aims to define the underlying dimensions of unemployment benefits in Slovenia using the principal component approach. We identified three determinants of unemployment benefits: the general economic environment, social protection, and the functioning of the labour market. Results of the research show that the poorer the general economic environment, the greater the pressure on unemployment benefits. Second, the more generous the social protection on the labour market is, the higher the pressure on unemployment benefits. Third, poor functioning of the labour market increases the pressure on unemployment benefits, although the last effect was found not to be statistically significant.

“…Empirijska istraživanja pokazuju da se privremeno zapošljavanje uglavnom odnosi na slabo kvalificirane i slabo plaćene poslove (Matković, 2013. ), kao i da određene skupine stanovništva (žene, mladi, strani i niskokvalificirani radnici te samci iz ruralnih područja) imaju veću vjerojatnost da će biti zaposleni uz ugovore na određeno vrijeme (Tomić, 2020.). Također, postoje naznake o tome da su reforme radnog zakonodavstva umjesto povećanja opće zaposlenosti dovele do stvaranja dualnog tržišta rada (za stalno s jedne te privremeno zapošljavanje s druge strane) (Tomić, 2020.…”

SAŽETAK U ovom članku, na temelju primarnih kvantitativnih i kvalitativnih podataka, analiziramo mnogostruke mehanizme koji proizvode nejednakosti u suvremenom hrvatskom društvu i višedimenzionalnu klasnu strukturu koja iz njih proizlazi. Naš je pristup potaknut koncepcijom Pierrea Bourdieua, koju smo znatno revidirali i prilagodili proučavanju postsocijalističkih društava u jugoistočnoj Europi. U tekstu prikazujemo četiri analitička koraka koja su nas vodila do koncepcije sveukupne društvene nejednakosti kao nejednakosti u društvenim 1 Ovaj rad temelji se na podacima prikupljenima projektima "Life-Strategies and Survival Strategies of Households and Individuals in South-East European Societies in the Times of Crisis" (IZ73Z0_152626), koji je u okviru programa SCOPES financirala Švicarska nacionalna zaklada za znanost (SNSF), te "Relacijski rodni identiteti u Hrvatskoj: modernizacijske i razvojne perspektive" (HRZZ-IP-2016-06-6010), koji je financirala Hrvatska zaklada za znanost. Završna priprema rada obavljena je u okviru bilateralnog projekta "Razvijanje višedimenzionalnog modela istraživanja društvenih nejednakosti" (br. 337-00-205/2019-09/10), uz podršku Ministarstva znanosti Republike Hrvatske i Ministarstva prosvete, nauke i tehnološkog razvoja Republike Srbije. Zahvaljujemo svima koji su nam omogućili pristup sekundarnim podacima, a osobito Poreznoj upravi Ministarstva financija Republike Hrvatske. 2 Pregled istraživanja o klasi u Hrvatskoj u socijalističkom razdoblju vidi u Tomić-Koludrović i Petrić (2014.a). Teorijska i empirijska istraživanja relevantna za temu klase u Hrvatskoj u postsocijalističkom razdoblju uključuju Katunarić (1996.), Tomić-Koludrović i Petrić (2014.b), Čengić (2016.), Cepić (2019.), Cepić i Tonković (2020.), Doolan i Tonković (2021.). 3 Naš model analize klase u hibridnim društvima jugoistočne Europe razvijen je kroz komparativnu analizu podataka iz Hrvatske, Srbije, Slovenije te Bosne i Hercegovine. Na temelju analiza podataka iz Srbije objavljen je članak Cvetičanin i sur. (2021.) Analize podataka za Hrvatsku prikazuju se u ovom tekstu. Monografija koja uključuje komparativne analize i interpretacije podataka za sva četiri spomenuta društva u pripremi je.
