Abstract

ABSTRACT Research on the direct effect of social origin (DESO) focuses on how background influences later labour market outcomes after accounting for education. Growing up in a household of low social origin might decrease the chances of certain future outcomes; however, the extent to which this matters is contingent on the economic cycle. Using the EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) and the European Social Survey (ESS) between 2002 and 2014, we analyse whether the gap in the DESO in terms of employment and earnings widened following the Great Recession for young adults (25-34) in France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain and the United Kingdom. Our results suggest that young adults of high social origin faced more disadvantages in terms of employment than young adults of low social origin in France, Spain and the United Kingdom. On the other hand, analyses show that young adults of low social origin experienced more disadvantages in terms of earnings than their counterparts of high social origin in Spain.

欧洲年轻人的劳动力市场前景:大衰退期间社会出身的不同影响

社会出身的直接影响(DESO)研究侧重于背景如何影响教育后的劳动力市场结果。在社会出身低下的家庭中长大可能会降低某些未来成就的机会;然而，这种影响的程度取决于经济周期。利用欧盟收入和生活条件统计(EU- silc)和2002年至2014年间的欧洲社会调查(ESS)，我们分析了法国、德国、意大利、波兰、西班牙和英国的年轻人(25-34岁)在经济大衰退后，DESO在就业和收入方面的差距是否扩大。我们的研究结果表明，在法国、西班牙和英国，高社会出身的年轻人在就业方面比低社会出身的年轻人面临更多的不利因素。另一方面，分析表明，在西班牙，社会出身低的年轻人在收入方面比社会出身高的年轻人经历了更多的不利因素。

期刊介绍： European Societies, the flagship journal of the European Sociological Association, aims to promote and share sociological research related to Europe. As a generalist sociology journal, we welcome research from all areas of sociology. However, we have a specific focus on addressing the socio-economic and socio-political challenges faced by European societies, as well as exploring all aspects of European social life and socioculture. Our journal is committed to upholding ethical standards and academic independence. We conduct a rigorous and anonymous review process for all submitted manuscripts. This ensures the quality and integrity of the research we publish. European Societies encourages a plurality of perspectives within the sociology discipline. We embrace a wide range of sociological methods and theoretical approaches. Furthermore, we are open to articles that adopt a historical perspective and engage in comparative research involving Europe as a whole or specific European countries. We also appreciate comparative studies that include societies beyond Europe. In summary, European Societies is dedicated to promoting sociological research with a focus on European societies. We welcome diverse methodological and theoretical approaches, historical perspectives, and comparative studies involving Europe and other societies.
