Measuring transnationality of immigrants in Germany
The scope of immigrants' transnational ties and the relationship to their social position is subject to a controversial debate that suggests a dualistic picture. On the one hand, globalization theorists argue that an elite of highly educated and economically most successful professionals intensively engages in and benefits from transnationality. On the other hand, most scholars in migration and assimilation studies hold that it is the most underp…
Assessing the effect of regional deprivation on mortality avoiding compositional bias
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: We assessed the effect of regional deprivation on individual mortality by making use of a natural experiment: we followed up ethnic German resettlers from Former Soviet Union countries who were quasi-randomly distributed across the socioeconomically heterogeneous counties of Germany's federal state North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW). METHODS: We used data from the retrospective cohort study 'AMOR' on the mortality of resettler…
The impact of regional and neighbourhood deprivation on physical health in Germany
This study highlights the difference regional and in particular neighbourhood deprivation make to the physical health of individuals in Germany. The results support the argument that specific neighbourhood exposures serve as an intermediary step between deprivation and health. As people with a low socioeconomic status were more likely to be exposed to unfavourable neighbourhood characteristics these conditions plausibly contribute towards generat…

DEUTSCH: Die regionale Gleichwertigkeit der Lebensverhältnisse ist ein sozialpolitisches Leitprinzip in Deutschland. Während sich bei einem Ost-West-Vergleich Lebensverhältnisse und gesundheitliche Situation tendenziell angleichen, zeigen sich unterhalb dieser großräumigen Entitäten erhebliche Disparitäten. Diese haben mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit Auswirkungen auf die Gesundheit der jeweiligen Bevölkerung. Die Analyse daraus resultierender gesun…
