Generate Outsiderness-Values in EU-SILC This file does not produce any results shown in the paper but is necessary to generate the group- and country-specific values of labor market vulnerability (\"outsiderness\") on which our article relies. This measure is based on EU-SILC data. We are not allowed to share EU-SILC microdata due to the signed confidentiality undertaking. However, we provide the entire code to replicate the creation of group- and country-specific outsiderness values in case you are in possession of EU-SILC microdata. Furthermore, we do provide the calculated values for each group in each country, i.e. the result of running the file create_outsiderness_SILC, in the excel file called \"outsiderness.xlsx\". At the end of the file \"create_outsiderness_SILC.do\", the excel file created this way is imported and reshaped to generate the two dta-files (\"outsiderness_tomerge\" and \"outsiderness_sp_tomerge\"), which are merged with ESS data in the main syntax. 2. Replication of Empirical Results The do-file called \"replication_sharingtherisk\" generates all the empirical results (tables, figures) in the paper and the supplementary online appendix.
