Prof. Dr. Anette Eva Fasang

Prof. Fasang erforscht Lebensverläufe von Individuen und Familien über längere Zeiträume hinweg, um zu verstehen, wie unterschiedliche Lebensentscheidungen (Beruf, Familie, Partnerschaft) zu wirtschaftlichen Ungleichheiten führen. Ihr aktueller Fokus liegt auf der Analyse von Arbeitsmarkt- und Familiendynamiken in verschiedenen Wohlfahrtsstaaten sowie auf den Folgen von Politikinterventionen wie Mindestlohnreformen für unterschiedliche Bevölkerungsgruppen, insbesondere Frauen und Mütter. Sie entwickelt dabei innovative statistische Methoden (Sequenzanalyse kombiniert mit Dekompositionsverfahren), um komplexe, zeitliche Muster in Lebensverläufen zu beschreiben und Ungleichheitsursachen zu identifizieren. Ihre Forschung ist relevant für Arbeitsmarkt-, Sozial- und Familienpolitik sowie für die Evaluation von Reformen in Bereichen wie Mindestlohn, Kinderbetreuung und Rentensysteme.

• New Life for Old Ideas: The "Second Wave" of Sequence Analysis Bringing the "Course" Back Into the Life Course

  2010

  Sociological Methods & Research · DOI

  In this article the authors draw attention to the most recent and promising developments of sequence analysis. Taking methodological developments in life course sociology as the starting point, the authors detail the complementary strength in sequence analysis in this field. They argue that recent advantages of sequence analysis were developed in response to criticism of the original work, particularly optimal matching analysis. This debate arose over the past two decades and culminated in the 2000 exchange in Sociological Methods & Research. The debate triggered a "second wave" of sequence techniques that led to new technical implementations of old ideas in sequence analysis. The authors bring these new technical approaches together, demonstrate selected advances with synthetic example data, and show how they conceptually contribute to life course research. This article demonstrates that in less than a decade, the field has made much progress toward fulfilling the prediction that Andrew Abbott made in 2000, that "anybody who believes that pattern search techniques are not going to be basic to social sciences over the next 25 years is going to be very much surprised" (p. 75).

• The Interplay of Work and Family Trajectories over the Life Course: Germany and the United States in Comparison

  2017

  American Journal of Sociology · DOI

  This article uses sequence analysis to examine how gender inequality in work-family trajectories unfolds from early adulthood until middle age in two different welfare state contexts. Results based on the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth and the German National Education Panel Study demonstrate that in Germany, all work-family trajectories are highly gender-specific irrespective of social class. In contrast, patterns of work-family interplay across the life course in the United States are, overall, less gendered, but they differ widely by social class. In fact, work-family patterns characterized by high occupational prestige are fairly equally accessible for men and women. However, women are far more likely than men to experience the joint occurrence of single parenthood and unstable low-prestige work careers in the United States. The authors contribute to the literature by bringing in a longitudinal, process-oriented life course perspective and conceptualizing work-family trajectories as interlocked, multidimensional processes.
