Dear ESRA colleagues,

 

Following an open competition I am delighted to announce that the Scientific Advisory Board of the European Social Survey has selected the following rotating modules for inclusion in Round 9 of the ESS.

 

The two modules selected are as follows:

 

‘The Timing of Life: The Organisation of the Life Course in Europe’  is a repeat of a module included in ESS Round 3. The team is led by Francesco Billari (Oxford, UK) and also includes Gunhild Hagestad (NOVA/Norwegian Social Research Oslo and Akershus College of Applied Sciences); Aart Liefbroer (Netherlands Interdisciplinary Demographic Institute, The Hague); Zsolt Spéder (Hungary), Demographic Research Institute, Hungarian Statistical Office); Jan Van Bavel (Centre for Sociological Research, University of Leuven) as well as Richard Settersten Jr. (Hallie E. Ford Center for Healthy Children & Families, Oregon State University).

 

‘Justice and Fairness in Europe: Coping with Growing Inequalities and Heterogeneities’ is a new module that will be included in the ESS for the first time. The design team is led by Stefan Liebig, Department of Sociology, Bielefeld University, Germany. Other members of the team include: Bernhard Kittel, Nadia Steiber (Austria); Jürgen Schupp, Michael Weinhardt (Germany), István György Tóth, Márton Medgyesi (Hungary); Arye Rattner, Avital Mentovich, Clara Sabbagh, Meir Yaish (Israel); and Guillermina Jasso (USA).

The modules will be fielded alongside the ESS core questionnaire in Round 9 (fieldwork commences September 2018) and data will be available from late 2019.
