Education and Youth Integration into European Labour Markets

Walter Müller

Mannheim Centre for European Social Research, Mannheim University, Germany, wmueller{at}sowi.uni-mannheim.de

Education is a crucial determinant of people’s life chances, and it particularly affects the integration of youth into labour markets. The article shows how different kinds and levels of education shape the access of young people to jobs of varying advantage and the smoothness of the transition from school to work. It elaborates the common patterns in the relationship between education and early career labour market outcomes and investigates - especially for EU member countries - how varying institutional arrangements in the educational systems and in the regulation of labour markets lead to varying integration outcomes.

Key Words: educational systems • labour market regulation • social inequality • transition from school to work • youth unemployment
