Empirically, a case study on regulatory policies investigates target group constructions in Germany’s containment + vaccination policies during COVID-19.

Methodologically, thereby the CARIN criteria – which have been used in public opinion research – are harnessed for meso-level policy research.

Sonja Blum @sonjablum.bsky.social · Jan 6

📣New article in @policy-politics.bsky.social

In public policy, target group constructions are crucial. But how do they work?

We argue that the CARIN criteria from welfare deservingness research guide positive/negative target group constructions across policy types.

Have you ever wondered why many women in early history supported rightist parties that often suppressed women's political rights?
