National Differences and Life Course Outcomes: A Comparative Analysis of Welfare State Regimes

This workshop explores the complex interplay between national institutional configurations and life course outcomes in advanced societies. It addresses dualistic life course regimes, the effects of welfare state typologies on life course risks, mobility, and outcomes, with specific focus on the United States, Germany, and Sweden. The discussions highlight gender dynamics, marriage homogamy, and their implications for labor force participation and income inequality in varying political economies. Empirical findings and theoretical perspectives will be examined to shed light on globalization's impact on early life courses.
