Das Kapitel zeigt, dass der Anteil der mehrsprachigen Jugendlichen an Österreichs Schulen im Zeitraum 2012 bis 2016 zugenommen hat und die demografische Entwicklung auch Schulen zu Orten der sprachlichen Vielfalt macht. Betrachtet man die fachlichen Kompetenzen der mehrsprachigen Schüler/innen in Mathematik, Englisch und Deutsch, so schneiden mehrs...
This paper investigates educational and occupational pathways of children of Turkish and Western-Balkan origin and of the majority population in Austria and Switzerland. Using a representative sample of 2186 respondents living in two Swiss and two Austrian urban areas, our results show that descendants of immigrants have less chances to follow a co...
Ausgehend von einem graduellen Integrationsverlauf wurde im integrationssoziologischen Diskurs vielfach davon ausgegangen, dass die Nachfolgegenerationen muslimischer MigrantInnen in ihren Einstellungen und Handlungsweisen deutlich säkularer werden und damit Religiosität für die zweite Generation an Bedeutung verliert. Bisherige Studien zum Wandel...
Dieses zusammenfassende Kapitel liefert empirisch fundierte Antworten auf Fragen, die in den öffentlichen und medialen Debatten über die Integration von MuslimInnen in die europäische Gesellschaft zirkulieren. Religiöse Verhaltensmuster und durch Religion abgestützte Normen sind in öffentlichen Diskursen oftmals eng mit der These eines sogenannten...
In diesem Band werden soziale und religiös-kulturelle Milieus von MuslimInnen im Generationenwandel dargestellt und die vielfältigen innerfamiliären Transmissionsprozesse in muslimischen Familien (auf Basis von 363 Eltern-Kind-Dyaden) untersucht. Im Mittelpunkt der vergleichenden Analysen zwischen den Generationen stehen Zusammenhänge zwischen reli...
Recent literature has emphasised the importance of family involvement within immigrant families in determining their children's educational pathways. On the one hand, the focus on family involvement and the transmission of familial resources becomes more important when disentangling ethnic educational inequalities for second-generation youth. On th...
This article explores school-related involvement strategies within Turkish families in Austria, France and Sweden and their linkages with educational achievements of their children. Using data from the TIES survey, results show that the educational attainment of second-generation Turks in Austria is much more dependent on various activities of supp...
This paper examines the educational and occupational trajectories among second-generation immigrants of Turkish and Western-Balkan origin in Switzerland. Using a representative sample of 1107 respondents in two Swiss urban areas, the findings reveal that descendants of immigrants have reduced chances to follow a constant successful path from educat...
This article examines academic achievements of immigrant youths in four new immigration countries: Greece, Italy, Portugal
and Spain. The analysis based on the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) of 2009 and 2012 reveals large
educational achievement gaps between immigrant children and natives in all four south European countries....
With ongoing immigration from ‘all over the world’, European cities are realising that the local level is gaining importance as a setting for interethnic coexistence. In this article, we investigate the attachment of migrants and natives to their local context in three neighbourhoods (one better-off, two more deprived) in Vienna that differ in cont...
This chapter analyses the local network embeddedness of migrants and their descendants in three different Viennese neighbourhoods and explores the impact it has on community cohesion. We argue that not only are individual characteristics key for the formation of migrants’ networks, but also neighbourhood conditions, as they provide opportunity stru...
Die stetige Zuwanderung von MigrantInnen aus muslimischen Ländern in stark säkulare Gesellschaften Westeuropas innerhalb der letzten vier Jahrzehnte hat vermehrt die Frage aufgeworfen, welche Rolle Religion im Akkulturationsprozess der Nachfolgegeneration spielt. Die sogenannte zweite Generation, die in der Aufnahmegesellschaft der Eltern geboren u...
The most recent Austrian Integration Report indicates that a substantial proportion of
Turkish immigrants do not feel at home in Austria. Whether these lower levels of
social well-being also apply to the Turkish first, second or follow-up generations in
Austria is uncertain. This article aims to fill this gap by asking how the Turkish second
genera...
Turkish immigrants and their descendants have become the main target of anti-immigrant political mobilization in Austria since the 1990s. They have come to epitomize the image of the Oriental enemy and the Muslim other. Based on these discursive constructions, Muslims in general, and Turks in particular, have often been described as unwilling to in...
This volume investigates educational inequalities among children of Turkish immigrants in Austria, France, and Sweden. One of the largest immigrant groups in these countries, Turks nonetheless face discrimination and limited opportunities, and this study shows how those problems play out in education. One of its key findings is that systems that pr...
Dieser Band rückt innerfamiliäre Transmissionsprozesse in Familien mit Migrationshintergrund in den Mittelpunkt. Die Beiträge untersuchen innerfamiliäre Weitergabe in den Bereichen Sprache, Bildung und Mobilität, Heirat und Kontakte bis hin zu Werte, Tradition und Religion. Wandel und Kontinuität zwischen den Generationen nehmen dabei eine Schlüsse...
The educational attainment of second-generation students in Europe’s knowledge-based societies is an important determinant of their subsequent life chances — their occupational and economic attainment as well as their general well-being. School qualifications and university degrees are often regarded as entry tickets to specific positions in the la...
The goal of this chapter is to describe how researchers in Austria have studied ethnicity and educational inequality between 1980 and 2010 as well as critically assess the reasons for specific research activities and the lack thereof. Even today Austria still lacks a systematic overview of research in the field of ethnicity/race and educational ine...

Regarding the spatial dimension of ego/alter relations, the fact whether egos and alters live within the same neighbourhood and the consequences thereof are heavily debated. Some authors argue that a network consisting mostly of people who live in the same urban area may result in lower socio-economic opportunities. Another strand of resear...

By drawing on comparative analyses of successful second-generation Turks from disadvantaged family backgrounds in France and the Netherlands, this article examines pathways and mechanisms that lead to educational success against the backdrop of structural and familial disadvantages. We foreground the experiences and practices of successful second-g...
One of the foremost challenges for contemporary Europe is the integration of new immigrants and their children. The second generation constitutes a rapidly growing and highly visible group of metropolitan youth that faces the dilemma of navigating their ethnic identities in a world that puts a premium on assimilation. This volume examines the lives...
We use PISA 2009 data to determine how immigrant children in Italy and Spain compare with native students in reading and mathematics skills. Drawing on the vast empirical literature in traditional immigration countries, we test the extent to which the most well-established patterns and hypotheses of immigrant/native educational achievement gaps als...
Philipp Schnell onderzocht wat de verschillen veroorzaakt in de onderwijsmobiliteit van tweede generatie Turken in vijf steden in Zweden, Frankrijk en Oostenrijk. Hij deed onderzoek in Stockholm, Parijs, Straatsburg, Wenen en Linz. Hij keek naar factoren op individueel niveau, zoals familieleden die hulpbronnen inbrachten relevant voor de onderwijs...
This paper analyses neighbourhood embeddedness of immigrant and non-immigrant populations in six European cities. We define neighbourhood embeddedness as an individual level concept and distinguish two main dimensions: place and network embeddedness. The neighbourhood embeddedness concept provides us with the possibility to study attitudinal and be...
Scholars have given considerable attention to the educational pathways of the new second generation, the children of immigrants to the United States and western Europe who came of age at the turn of the twenty-first century. Social scientists on both sides of the Atlantic have consistently reported significant differences in academic outcomes among...
Uit eerdere studie bleek dat, gebruikmakend van TIES-data, veel tweede generatie jongeren die uiteindelijk het hoger onderwijs instroomden, dit deden via een lange of indirecte route. De afdeling PO van het ministerie van OCW heeft daarom aan het IMES gevraagd of zij de kwestie van de lange route nader wil uitwerken en in een international perspect...
Het rapport ‘Valkuilen en Springplanken’ in het onderwijs is een vergelijkend onderzoek naar tweede generatie Turkse jongeren in zeven Europese landen. Het grote aantal voortijdige schoolverlaters onder de tweede generatie Turkse jongeren blijkt geen algemeen Europees probleem, maar typerend voor Nederland en Duitsland.
