Discuss types of social mobility in detail? 1. INTRODUCTION: Social mobility refers to the ability of individuals to move up or down the social ladder within a society. It is about the opportunity for people to improve their economic or social status, regardless of their background. Higher social mobility means that individuals have a better chance of achieving success and upward mobility, promoting a fairer and more equal society. 2. MEANING OF SOCIAL MOBILITY:
Social mobility means the ability of people to move up or down in society, either improving their economic and social status or experiencing a decline. 3. DEFINITION OF SOCIAL MOBILITY: ✓ According to Max weber: “Social mobility refers to a change in the position of an individual or a group of individuals relative to their previous position or to the position of others.” 4. ESSENTIALS OF MOBILTY: Following are the essentials of social mobility. ❖ Movement: Social mobility is about the movement of individuals or groups from one social class or status to another. This movement can be upward, meaning moving to a higher social position, or downward, meaning moving to a lower social position. Example: For example, someone born into a low-income family who becomes a successful entrepreneur experiences upward social mobility. ❖ Adoption: Adoption in the context of social mobility refers to the acceptance or integration of individuals or groups into a higher social class or status. For instance, when a person from a working-class background earns a college degree and is accepted into a prestigious profession, they experience adoption into a higher social position. ❖ Rejection: Rejection, on the other hand, is the opposite of adoption. It occurs when individuals or groups are not accepted into higher social classes despite their efforts or qualifications. For instance, someone with great potential from a marginalized community might face rejection when
trying to access certain job opportunities due to bias or unfair practices. 5. CHARACTERISTICS OF SOCIAL MOBILITY: Here are some characteristics of social mobility. ❖ Upward and Downward Movement: Social mobility involves both upward and downward shifts in a person's social and economic status. People can move to higher or lower positions in society based on various factors. ❖ Education and Opportunities: Access to quality education and equal opportunities play a crucial role in determining social mobility. Better education and opportunities increase the chances of upward mobility. ❖ Economic Factors: Economic conditions and income levels significantly impact social mobility. A strong economy and job opportunities can facilitate upward mobility, while economic downturns may hinder it. ❖ Social Class: Social mobility often involves movement between different social classes. Individuals from lower classes may move up, while those from higher classes may move down. ❖ Merit and Hard Work: Societies with higher social mobility tend to reward merit and hard work, allowing individuals to succeed regardless of their background. ❖ Social Policies: Government policies aimed at reducing inequality and providing support to underprivileged individuals can positively impact social mobility. 6. TYPES OF SOCIAL MOBILITY: Social mobility refers to the ability of individuals or families to move up or down the social ladder in a society. There are mainly three types of social mobility.
❖Intergenerational Mobility: This type of mobility looks at changes in social status between different generations within a family. For example, when a person from a lower-income family achieves higher social and economic status than their parents, it's called upward intergenerational mobility. ❖Intragenerational Mobility: In this type of mobility, individuals experience changes in their social standing within their own lifetime. For instance, if a person starts their career in a low-paying job but eventually works their way up to a higher- paying and more prestigious position, it demonstrates upward intragenerational mobility. ❖Structural Mobility: This type of mobility refers to changes in social status due to broader changes in the society's economic and social structure. For example, when a society experiences economic growth, it can lead to overall upward mobility for many individuals, regardless of their personal characteristics or efforts. 7. FACTORS INFLUANCES SOCIAL MOBILITY: Here are some of the key factors that can impact social mobility. ❖Education: Access to quality education can significantly impact a person's chances of upward mobility as it provides opportunities for better jobs and higher income. ❖Economic Opportunities: The availability of good job opportunities and a thriving economy can contribute to social mobility by allowing people to improve their financial situation.
