Abstract

30 Jahre nach dem Mauerfall wird eine hitzige öffentliche Debatte über die Teilhabe gebürtiger Ostdeutscher an ost­- wie bundesdeutschen Spitzenpositionen in Wirtschaft, Kultur und Gesellschaft geführt. Der vorliegende Beitrag nimmt diese Debatte zum Anlass, den Arbeitsmarkterfolg von Promovierten aus beiden Landesteilen gegenüber zu stellen. Hierfür findet ein innovativer Datensatz Anwendung, der Informationen zu den Promovierten mit Informationen zu ihren Erwerbsverläufen verknüpf. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Herkunft aus Ostdeutschland weder eine ausbildungsadäquate Beschäftigung noch den im Job erzielten Lohn beeinträchtigt.
