And yet, lifelong learning is a common demand in highly industrialized societies. This article provides a first empirical analysis of adult immigrants’ educational participation in Germany. It uses the novel German National Educational Panel Study with unique retrospective life-course data. By adopting a life-course perspective, both transnational continuities in the life-course as well as the ruptures caused by migration are captured. The analysis investigates in what ways participation in education is embedded in immigrants’ transnational life-course. It can be shown that immigrants’ participation in formal and nonformal full-time education is common. Hypotheses predict a central influence of (1) pre-immigration activities and (2) of legal immigration gateways. Sequence and cluster analysis detect two education-related incorporation patterns: one is marked by a dominance of educational activities and the other by phases in education alternate with employment and unemployment. The results of multivariate models underline the predictive power of pre-immigration activity, i.e., transnational continuity in immigrants’ life courses. But we can also observe substantial disruption like the transnational transition from employment to education which can be the enforced response to nonrecognition or devaluation of foreign educational credentials. Institutional opportunities and dispositions linked to legal immigration gateways are even more powerful predictors of educational participation. Altogether, the article illustrates how the interaction of structural opportunities and individual agency plays out in the formation of different incorporation trajectories of adult immigrants."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s12134-014-0401-1"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/67217"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation.eissn","1874-6365"],["dc.relation.issn","1488-3473"],["dc.title","Back to School in a New Country?

Migrants’ qualifications from abroad are often devalued by employers or state institutions. One option to react to such a lack of recognition is the gaining of institutionalized cultural capital in the receiving society. Comparing levels of education attained before and after migration, migrants may move in an upward, lateral, or downward direction. Our study investigates the vertical dimension of transnational educational mobility from multiple perspectives. First, our quantitative analysis of the NEPS (the German National Educational Panel Study) relates the levels of pre- and post-migration education. We critically reflect on how respective results on educational mobility depend on how respondents sort their foreign education into the German system of educational categories and hierarchies used in the survey questionnaire. Second, our qualitative analysis sheds light on several dimensions of migrants’ subjective views and how their educational biographies interact with institutional settings in the receiving society. Exemplarily presented in-depth interviews focus on migrants who pursued educational programs in order to be able to return to the occupations (nursing and economics) they had been trained for abroad, but for which they were denied recognition in Germany. Our findings emphasize that post-migration education is highly ambivalent in terms of in- and exclusion. Individual migrants are caught in the structural tension between academic education as a rather globalized institution and nationally specific educational programs and hierarchies which are often incompatible across borders."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Open-Access-Publikationsfonds 2021"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.17645/si.v9i1.3599"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/85222"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-425"],["dc.relation.eissn","2183-2803"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Soziologisches Forschungsinstitut Göttingen"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.title","Upward, Lateral, or Downward?

Die übrigen Biografien zeigen frühe Krankheitsphasen, langjährige Arbeitslosigkeit, Familienarbeit und niedrige Einkommen aus Erwerbsarbeit in unterschiedlicher Abfolge. Auch unter den zuvor Normalerwerbstätigen zeigt sich allerdings ein mehrjähriger Prozess des Übergangs von Phasen durchschnittlich bezahlter Erwerbstätigkeit über Niedriglohn, Arbeitslosigkeit und Krankheit in die Rente. Dieser Prozess wirkt sich im Ergebnis negativ auf die Rentenhöhe aus. Durch die Analysen werden damit verschiedenartige biografische Gründe für die oft sehr niedrigen Rentenhöhen bei Erwerbsminderung erkennbar."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1515/zsr-2015-0406"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/67216"],["dc.language.iso","de"],["dc.relation.eissn","0514-2776"],["dc.relation.issn","2366-0295"],["dc.title","Die erwerbsbiografische Vorgeschichte der Frühverrentung wegen Erwerbsminderung"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

There is no catch all theory in social sciences. The strength of convention theory does not consist in establishing the priority of conventions in the first place, but in providing more powerful analytical tools in view of social interaction and development by bringing both of them into play, with their respective influence as being part of the analysis itself for any given situation. There is no definite explanation for the very existence of conventions but at best some historical reconstruction of the processes in which specific conventions and conventional categories developed. The focus of empirical and historical analysis must be on the interplay between conventions being brought into play by actors and the institutional structures and the constellations of power that are influenced by but cannot be reduced on the impact of conventions."],["dc.identifier.isi","000311972500004"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/27485"],["dc.notes.status","zu prĂĽfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.relation.issn","0172-6404"],["dc.title","On Conventions, Institutions, Power, and Uncertainty - Some Cursory Remarks"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
