• The first is structural mobility: it refers to mobility resulting from changes in social structure and is reflected in absolute mobility rates. (socresonline.org.uk)
• In contrast, other researchers suggest that the focus be on the fact that absolute mobility rates indeed vary, rather than on the persistence of a class gap, and argue that this very fact could be interpreted as support for meritocracy (e.g. (socresonline.org.uk)

Societies6

• As well as formalizing this argument, our model demonstrates its limits, elucidating a robust theoretical force making democracy less stable in societies with high social mobility: when the median voter expects to move up (respectively down), she would prefer to give less voice to poorer (respectively richer) social groups. (nber.org)
• The author calls for broad research efforts to inform the actions that governments could take so that all children in their societies have the opportunity to improve their lives, regardless of race, class, gender, or economic and social background. (unu.edu)

• Furthermore, comparative research addressing implications of social mobility on individuals' attitudes and behaviours rarely includes a large number of post-socialist societies. (springer.com)

Generations4

• Mobility may be intragenerational, within the same generation or intergenerational, between different generations. (wikipedia.org)
• A second reason why there is a knowledge gap in our understanding of social mobility in developing countries is that we do not have the data on income and occupations over many years for the same generation of individuals, let alone over multiple generations-grandparents, parents, and children. (unu.edu)
• We show that the answer to this fundamental question depends critically on the nature of economic mobility across generations. (springer.com)
• These changes over generations in the social structure, and the social, economical, and institutional developments that shape them, are the topic of this dissertation. (lu.se)

Theoretical2

• Our theoretical analysis shows that in the presence of social mobility, the political preferences of an individual depend on the potentially conflicting preferences of her "future selves," and that the evolution of institutions is determined through the implicit interaction between occupants of the same social niche at different points in time. (nber.org)
• Whereas many edited books appear fragmented, this book comes across as consistent and well edited…This book fills empirical gaps and provides theoretical nuances, not only to simplistic notions of the current African narratives, but also to our conceptual understanding of social mobility.

• Intragenerational mobility is less frequent, representing "rags to riches" cases in terms of upward mobility. (wikipedia.org)

(iod.com)

Researchers5

• Some researchers, then, focus on the fact that relative mobility rates remain more or less the same, which implies the persistence of a class gap, and use such fact to argue that contrary to the prediction of the logic of industrialism, meritocracy does not come with industrialisation (e.g. (socresonline.org.uk)
• The researchers use game theory to develop a mathematical model for situations where citizens experience different rates of social mobility. (northwestern.edu)
• The researchers presumed high mobility but only for the middle class and the rich. (northwestern.edu)
• The researchers hypothesized that subjective downward and upward social mobility would be negatively associated with life satisfaction and positively associated with depressive symptoms. (madinamerica.com)
• Because that research was published with new Labour in power ( their main research papers on the 1958/1970 cohorts were published in 2002 and 2005 ), this helped to create a 'social mobility has declined under Labour meme', despite the researchers consistently pointing out that it is a misreading of their findings, and that the research could not be said to measure the impact of post-1997 policy.
