Abstract	"In this chapter, we analyze education and employment transition patterns for 18 - 28-year-olds in Germany between 1983 and 2012 based on longitudinal data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP, v29). We employ sequence analysis in order to identify education and employment transition patterns for three overlapping age groups (18 - 22, 21 - 25, and 24 - 28). Next, we provide an analysis of changes of these patterns over time and discuss these changes with regards to inequality dynamics. To complement our analysis, we provide a description of key institutional, social, and macroeconomic contextual factors that contribute to changing conditions for labor market entry before and after the crisis. We find that despite the expansion of higher education, the dual apprenticeship system is still the modal norm for accessing the labor market, providing a relatively smooth entry due to the close association between school- and firm-based learning. In contrast to this general view, we also find evidence of increasing polarization with respect to labor market status between upper and lower labor market segments. Women, migrants, and the low skilled are especially likely to experience more precarious education and employment transitions, often leading to or characterized by long-term unemployment. This finding is particularly strong for younger cohorts, although it cannot be directly attributed to economic consequences of the financial crisis. Instead, increased precariousness appears to be part of an ongoing process related to labor market deregulation since the late 1990s in Germany." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku).
