We apply a novel class scheme based on two key features of contemporary capitalism i.e., individuals/households receiving multiple types of incomes, and the role of managers. The empirical application in Germany, Spain, and Italy over the period 2000–2017 reveals two main ...

This increase provides unique leverage for analyzing how fractionalization, threat, and contact shape the consequences of immigration and ethnolinguistic heterogeneity. Using the German Socio-Economic Panel and local district-level administrative data on refugee shares, ...

Based on a dynamic microsimulation model, we analyse how gender differences accumulate over work lives to examine the lifetime dimension of the gender gap. We estimate an average gender gap in lifetime earnings of 51.5 ...

The transition to parenthood represents a turning point shaping couples’ arrangements for paid work and housework. Previous studies often examined these changes in isolation, rather than as interrelated trajectories reflecting diverse models of family division of labor. Drawing on data from different-sex couples from the 1984–2019 Panel Study of Income Dynamics and the 1984–2020 German Socio-Economic ...

Stärkere Teilhabe an Integrations- und Bildungsmaßnahmen, verbessertes Deutsch und Entlastung von Familienarbeit können die Erwerbsintegration geflüchteter Frauen unterstützen, ebenso wie Kontakte zu Einheimischen. Die Pandemie ...

This paper examines the effects of the 2013 flood disaster in East Germany on subjective wellbeing. Merging geo-spatial flood data with longitudinal data from the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP), we use a panel event study design for the analysis. Our results show that those affected by the flood report a significant life satisfaction drop of 0.17 points on an 11-point scale, which is equivalent to a 2.5% ...

However, previous literature is mostly based on cross-sectional data or on longitudinal analyses similarly failing to disentangle individual-level variation from between-individual confounding. Moreover, previous longitudinal ...
