DESCRIPTION:*Alcohol consumption imposes significant economic and social co
 sts\, yet the effectiveness of state intervention remains theoretically amb
 iguous. This paper examines the impact of the staggered introduction of a s
 tate monopoly over spirits in Tsarist Russia (1895–1914) on public health
 \, crime\, and state revenues. Given Russia's historically high alcohol-rel
 ated mortality and dependence on alcohol taxation\, the monopoly's effects 
 on drinking behavior\, mortality\, and social outcomes are unclear. Using a
  difference-in-differences approach with differential timing\, we exploit r
 egional variation in the monopoly’s rollout to assess its consequences.**
 This paper studies how the intergenerational transmission of political pref
 erences shapes citizens’ political involvement. I develop a two-period mo
 del in which parents choose a costly level of transmission effort\, and chi
 ldren decide their level of political involvement. Higher transmission effo
 rt increases children’s incentives to choose a high level of involvement.
  Each child is then randomly paired with another child and incurs a cost wh
 en their political preferences differ\, with this cost being larger when bo
 th are highly involved. The model shows how parental influence links the ev
 olution of political preferences with political involvement.\\n\\nContact:
