Abstract

Contains fulltext : 63586.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Sociologists are interested in societies, the shape they have and the changes in their profile. For instance, societies consist of privileged and disadvantaged classes. This stratification is indicated by the extent to which at one point in time resources like income are distributed unequally among the members of a society. This phenomenon has been studied extensively and intensively by economists and sociologists. Independent of income disparities, benefits and handicaps may be transmitted to a smaller or larger extent from parents to their children. This is the question of intergenerational social mobility or reproduction of inequalities. That question has been studied primarily by sociologists.
