🧵 What kind of POPE do AMERICANS want?📸

Before the Conclave, @sophiemainz.bsky.social and I asked 1,500 U.S. adults to choose among hypothetical papal candidates.

Results: Americans prefer a liberal and *non-political* Pope. The latter might be challenging for Leo XIV.

Results ⬇️

Using data from focus groups with formal sector workers in Namibia, we illustrate how taxpayers link solidarity to the practice of paying taxes along these dimensions; demonstrating the usefulness of this framework for the further study of fiscal interconnectedness, also beyond Namibia.

The framework differentiates between affective and calculative solidarity on the one hand, and personal and generalised solidarity on the other hand.

How do taxpayers link solidarity to the practice of paying taxes? Taxation makes solidarity visible, but taxation practices also produce and shape solidarity. To scrutinize the linkages between taxation, ideas around redistribution, and solidarity we develop a framework of imagined solidarity.

Understanding why citizens are willing to finance public goods is central to development and state capacity. Taxation can contribute to the common good, yet particularly in developing contexts, citizens may not benefit – or contribute – equally from such resources or across their lifetimes.
