</titleInfo>
<abstract>This paper investigates the patterns of male
non-agricultural self-employment and how they have changed
over time in France, Germany and the UK. It is arguedthatthe
development of self-employment in the three
countries is based on specific institutional frameworks
resulting in different opportunities for the
self-employed.Thus, weexpect that the dynamics of growth,
the sectors of activity and the
socio-demographic characteristics of the
self-employed differ between the countries.
Theempiricalanalyses are based on the national Labour Force
Surveys of 1984 and 1994 (Germany 1982 and 1995). Our
findings indicate that educational requirements
differfundamentally betweenthe three countries and along
industrial branches. Further, we could observe some
country-specific developments in some sectors of activitybut
also a remarkable number of commongeneral patterns in
the development of self-employment.</abstract>
