Abstract:
|
This study investigates whether the life circumstances of immigrants and natives in Germany
have converged within the last decades. Theoretically, the idea of social production functions
is suggested as a general framework to integrate different assimilation approaches.
Empirically, a method is used that combines the multivariate regression approach with
common measures of segregation. This technique allows an easy assessment of assimilation
trends taking into account relevant structural changes, in our case altering demographic
compositions and the educational expansion. Immigrants and Germans are compared
regarding central typologies of education, work, family, and place of residence through
analyzing population censuses of 1970, 1989, and 1996. In spite of the fact that the
educational gap has clearly widened over the years under observation, it will turn out that in
respect of the other aspects of life the general trend appears to be towards assimilation,
especially for the second generation of the ‘classical’ labor migrants.
