A growing vein of scholarship argues that redistribution attitudes are rooted not only in economic self-interest, but also in perceptions about the deservingness of those receiving help, an arena in which social affinity and status judgments loom large (Van Oorschot 2000; Cavaille and Trump 2015; Laenen 2020). This dissertation applies recent theoretical and methodological advances to reexamine redistributive conflict and its consequences for the social bases of partisan divides in Europe. The first paper offers a new perspective on the ideological underpinnings of voting behavior in Europe. In varying degrees and combinations, I find preferences about the scope of the welfare state and perceptions of the deservingness of benefit recipients predict vote choice not only for longstanding parties, but also for green and radical right parties traditionally associated with the rising salience of socio-cultural issues. The second paper examines how deservingness perceptions and welfare state support relate to the education cleavage in electoral politics. Political economy perspectives of education as a labor market asset imply different effects on redistributive preferences than sociological and psychological views of education as a source of status (in)security associated with the propensity to draw or reject harsh boundaries against benefit recipients. Mediation analyses suggest the negative (positive) deservingness perceptions of those with low (high) education help to explain why radical right and green voters represent the poles of the education cleavage. Finally, a third (co-authored) paper offers fresh evidence about the nature of the gender gap in redistribution attitudes. Our results suggest women are more supportive of an expansive welfare state than men, but do not perceive the needy as more deserving. This implies that the gender gap is not the result of differences in empathy produced by gendered socialization. However, differences in welfare state support cannot be attributed to simple self-interest either. The gender gap emerges and widens only at the middle and higher ends of the economic distribution, where affluent men's attitudes towards the welfare state become sharply more negative, relative to their female counterparts.
