abstract: 'This paper examines the generational progress of ethnic minorities in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Britain by analysing four labour market outcomes: economic inactivity,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unemployment, access to salaried jobs and self-employment. An important
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
contribution of this paper is the possibility to examine the impact of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
range of cultural and social resources on employment outcomes, namely
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
language fluency, co-ethnic spouse, co-ethnic employer, bridging and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
bonding social capital. Controlling for ethnic and religious identities,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
individual, social and human capital characteristics, it finds clear
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
advantages of language proficiency in obtaining employment and salaried
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
jobs. However, the second generation shows little advancement in all the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outcomes examined and a particularly strong religious penalty is found
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
among Muslim women. It concludes that persistent ethno-religious penalty
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
experienced by the second generation poses a serious policy challenge
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and does little to strengthen our economy or in building a cohesive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
society.'
