“…But the two literatures' foci have been diametri cally opposite. On the one hand, the sociology of immigration literature is mostly interested in immigrants' and their children's educational and economic advancement trajectory (see Portes and Zhou 1993 for a quick review and introduction of the theory of segmented assimilation), and the structural drivers of xenophobia (Bohman 2015;Jaime-Castillo et al 2016;Mierina and Koroleva 2015).…”

“…The competition model, also called "labor market competition model" or "threat to status model" (Caro and Schulz 2012;Côté and Erickson 2009;Jaime-Castillo et al 2016), assumes that the competition for the same social space and resources varies according to an individual's place in the hierarchy of social status. Given that people with lower resources coexist in the social space as other excluded groups, such as immigrants, they compete for the same jobs and educational opportunities, and they therefore develop and manifest negative dispositions toward those groups (Caro and Schulz 2012;Kunovich 2004).…”

Lack of tolerance toward traditionally disadvantaged groups, such as immigrants, ethnic minorities and women, represents a growing challenge to contemporary democracies. Assuming that attitudes toward such social groups are at least partly learned during the political socialization of school-age children, this chapter explores individual differences in equal rights attitudes using data from the last International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS) 2009 on socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of eighth grade students from 38 countries. Using structural equations and multilevel models, the analysis estimates regression models using a set of measures, with family status being the main independent variable. The results show that there are large differences across countries regarding the level of inclusive attitudes, and that parental education and the number of books at home are relevant predictors of more inclusive attitudes of children in most of the countries analyzed; however, patterns differ by gender and immigrant groups. The findings are discussed, taking into account current and future political issues associated with migration and demands for equal rights.

“…However, the reality does not correspond to the theory. Achieving sustainable economic growth is closely linked to the longterm sustainability of public fi nances in an economy (Gavurová, 2012). Sustainability of public fi nances in the context of public debt and deepening the indebtedness of all market actors can be viewed from many angles.…”

“…As a result, it would create new pressure on public expenditure, especially in the social sphere. Jaime-Castillo, Marques-Perales, & Alvarez-Galvez (2016) argue that the effect of socioeconomic status on attitudes toward immigration is larger in countries characterised by high social expenditure. However, the authors add that there is much variation between analysed countries.…”
