Title
Determinants of Interethnic Relationships between non-Migrants and Migrants
Supervisor
Abstract
The planned thesis studies the determinants of interethnic relationships between non-migrants and migrants in Germany. A rich body of literature documents that such relationships generate positive outcomes for individual migrants and non-migrants as well as the social cohesion of host-societies at large.
However, so far, especially the non-migrant side of interethnic relationships remains under researched. Which living environments, personal characteristics and existing social networks enable or hamper the development of non-migrants’ interethnic relationships?
The thesis draws on household information provided by the Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP) and enriches them with other data sources to answer its research question. Longitudinal methods of data analyses are used to investigation the causal link between interethnic relationships and their possible determinants.
