How does economic globalisation influence individuals’ welfare state
preferences? Moving beyond the unidimensional understanding of globalisation
exposure, we intersect two dimensions of exposure perceptions (gain vs loss and
individual vs societal impacts) and propose a novel typology: collective
winner, lone winner, lone loser and collective loser. We then explain the
preference gap among losers (collective losers vis-à-vis lone losers) and among
winners (collective winners vis-à-vis lone winners) by considering three
distinct motivations for welfare state support: compensation, risk-pooling and
inequality reduction. We illustrate the usefulness of our typology using an
original survey in South Korea. We find that lone winners are far more
supportive of welfare spending than collective winners. At the same time,
collective losers are found to be much more supportive of welfare spending than
lone losers. We provide some first-cut evidence that the insurance-seeking
motivation common to lone winners and collective losers drive their welfare
state support.
