Till 1.961, 13.34 Mill. people emigrated to West Germany,· primarily from areas of the former state territory and the German Democratic Republic (cf. Wieduwilt and Jurgens, 1976:13·8J. ~owever, these migrants and fugitives 'had been of German nationality. True immigration began only after 1961 when the German Democratic Republic closed its border and internal demographic and sociostructural processes decreased the West German work force.' The growing industry found new markets in southern Europe for the recruitment of labor. The. number of foreign employed-a very large majority of them workers-rose from 0.5 Mill. in 1961 or 2*5 percent of the total work force to a high of 2.6 .Mill. in 1973 or 11lJ9 percent of the total work force; due to the economic crisis it has dropped to around 2 Mill. or a little under 10 percent of the total work force by now. This paper has two major 'intentions: 1) to demonstrate that West Germany has become an immigrant society in a trueIy sociologieal'sense; .that the so-called \"guese-workers'<andjhelr families rather than being migratory workers 'havebecome part of the social structure;\" 2) to \"advance a socio-structural concept for the analysis of immigrant workerminonties,","PeriodicalId":85156,"journal":{"name":"Mid-American review of sociology","volume":"5 2 1","pages":"13-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1980-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.17161/STR.1808.4866","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67523463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Discovering which aspects of female education account for reduced fertility requires a refined conceptualization of the education-fertility relationship as well as identification of all the causal variables and operators that mediate the effects of female education. A series of propositions from the research literature regarding indirect effects of female education on fertility through effects on age at marriage or first conception, labor force participation, social mobility, economic utility of children, exposure to mass media, knowledge and use of contraception, husband-wife communication, and infant mortality are set forth along with their rationale and empirical support. These propositions are supplemented by 1 on the direct effects and 3 on the interaction effects of female education on fertility. A block-recursive model is presented by means of which the 12 propositions can be brought together and assessed. A methodology for applying appropriate statistical procedures to World Fertility Survey or other high quality data arranged in the form of multivariate models in order to decompose the direct, indirect and joint effects of female education is then proposed and discussed.\u0000","PeriodicalId":85156,"journal":{"name":"Mid-American review of sociology","volume":"4 1 1","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1979-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.17161/STR.1808.6082","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67523519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
