„Gleich und Gleich gesellt sich gern“ oder „Gegensätze ziehen sich an“? : eine empirische Untersuchung anhand des SESKI-Datensatzes

The importance of partner selection as a constitutive element of social inequality was already recognized by the likes of Max Weber. Social characteristics such as education, religion and age play an important role in partner selection. Great importance is attributet especially to the aspect of education in recent social research. How do these social attributes help explain homogamy / heterogamy? How has the influence of these characteristics changed over time? The author gives an overview of the socio-historical development, theoretical approaches to explain and present empirical findings on the choice of partners. On this basis, he analyzes the transformation of the above characteristics using the SESKI record of the Sociological Institute of the RWTH Aachen. Based on this analysis, he retraces the current assumption for the development of mate choice. Structure theory, Family Economy and Exchange Theory form the basis for this empirical observation. The book is aimed at family sociologists and interested parties.
