Abstract

[fre] Débuts difficiles chez les jeunes : le poids du passé familial . Christine Chambaz et Nicolas HerpinLa situation relative des moins de trente ans s'est dégradée entre 1987 et 1994. Pour les jeunes poursuivant des études supérieures, qu'ils habitent chez leurs parents ou vivent dans un logement indépendant, le risque de figurer parmi les ménages au niveau de vie le plus faible s'est accru. La pauvreté en milieu étudiant* résulte de la nette augmentation du nombre d'étudiants, y compris dans les milieux les plus modestes où l'aide de la famille est plus réduite. . Parallèlement à cette pauvreté transitoire, une pauvreté héritée n'a pas disparu parmi les jeunes. Certaines caractéristiques de la famille d'origine, souvent associées à la pauvreté, se transmettent d'une génération à l'autre : chômage, difficultés matérielles, etc. Ces caractéristiques, quand elles se cumulent de façon précoce, concernent une minorité de jeunes (2 % d'entre eux) ; mais elle constitue le « cœur » de cette pauvreté héritée. [ger] Der EinfluB der Familienverhaltnisse erschwert den Start der Jugendlichen . Die relative Situation der unter 30jâhrigen hat sich zwischen 1987 und 1994 verschlechtert. Fur die Jugendlichen, die eine Hochschule besuchen, hat sich das Risiko, zu den Haushalten mit dem niedrigsten Lebensstandard zu zâhlen, vergrôBert, und zwar unabhângig davon, ob sie bei ihren Eltern oder in einer eigenen Wohnung leben. Die Armut bei den Studenten ergibt sich aus dem deutlichen Anstieg der Studentenzahl, einschlieBlich in den bescheidensten Kreisen, wo die Hilfe der Familie geringer ist. . Parallel zu dieser vorùbergehenden Armut gibt es unter den Jugendlichen auch weiterhin die ererbte Armut. Bestimmte Familienmerkmale, die oftmals mit der Armut in Verbindung stehen, werden von Generation zu Generation weitergegeben: Arbeitslosigkeit, matérielle Schwierigkeiten usw. Wenn sich diese Merkmale frûh kumulieren, betreffen sie zwar nur eine Minderheit von Jugendlichen (2% von ihnen), bilden aber dann den dieser ererbten Armut. [spa] Principios en la vida diffciles para los jôvenes : el peso de la herencia familiar . La situaciôn relativa de los de menos de treinta anos se degradô entre 1987 y 1994. Para los jôvenes que cursaron estudios superiores, para los que viven en casa de sus padres asf como para los que tienen vivienda propia, el riesgo de aparecer entre los hogares de nivel de vida mâs bajo aumentô. La pobreza en medio estudiantil se debe al fuerte alza del numéro de estudiantes, hasta en los medios mâs modestes donde la ayuda de la familia es limitada. Junto con esta pobreza transitoria, una pobreza heredada no desapareciô entre los jôvenes. Ciertas caracterfsticas de la familia de origen, a menudo asociadas a la pobreza se transmiten de una generaciôn a otra : paro, dificultades materiales, etc. Taies caracterfsticas, cuando se cumulan precozmente, afectan a una minorîa de jôvenes (el 2%) ; pero constituyen estas el "corazôn" de dicha pobreza heredada. [eng] Difficult Beginnings for Young People: The Influence of the Family's History . From 1987 to 1994, the relative situation of the under-30s deteriorated. For young people in higher education, living with their parents or in independent housing, the risk of joining the households with the lowest standard of living rose. Poverty among students is the result of the sharp rise in the number of students, including those from the most modest backgrounds where family assistance is at its lowest. . In addition to this temporary poverty, young people are still not free from inherited poverty. Some of the family of origin's characteristics, often those to do with poverty, are handed down from one generation to the next: unemployment, material difficulties, etc. When these characteristics accumulate early on, they only concern a minority (2%) of young people. However, these young people form the "core" of this inherited poverty.
