Abstract:
|
This paper focuses on differences between the educational systems in German states and their influence on educational opportunity. After analyzing differing institutional regulations of structures and contents, a typology and four types of educational systems are identified. The effects of these types on social inequality are analyzed for East Germany, where three of the types were introduced after unification and differences in educational participation can largely be attributed to these distinct educational systems that followed the uniform socialist one. It can be shown that the type of educational system has enormous influence on the extent of social inequality. |

Numerous studies from across the globe and over time demonstrate that differing educational systems produce different levels of student enrolment and achievement (e.g. Shavit and Blossfeld 1993 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2001; Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and UNESCO Institute for Statistics 2002; Baker and |
