Economic Mobility Across Generations Around the World looks at an issue that has gotten much attention in the developed world, but with, for the first time, new data and analysis covering most of the world, including developing economies. The analysis examines whether those born in poverty or in prosperity are destined to remain in the same economic circumstances into which they were born, and looks back over a half a century at whether children's lives are better or worse than their parents' in different parts of the world. It suggests local, national, and global actions and policies that can help break the cycle of poverty, paving the way for the next generation to realize their potential and improve their lives.Occupational mobilitySocial mobilityIncomeElectronic books.Occupational mobility.Social mobility.Income.331.12/72Narayan Ambar980906World Bank,Credo Reference (Firm),CaBNVSLCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910466464203321Fair progress2449025UNINA03310nam 2200493zu 450 991049598140332120210807005619.02-7351-1805-310.4000/books.editionsmsh.3004(CKB)4340000000013044(SSID)ssj0001608173(PQKBManifestationID)16315675(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001608173(PQKBWorkID)14896998(PQKB)11382441(FrMaCLE)OB-editionsmsh-3004(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/85083(PPN)19836993X(EXLCZ)99434000000001304420160829d1989 uy freuu||||||m||||txtccrLa Bête Noire: à la Recherche du Cheval ParfaitParisÉditions de la Maison des sciences de l’homme1989[Place of publication not identified]Editions de la Maison des sciences de l'homme19891 online resource (341 p.) Ethnologie de la FranceBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph2-7351-0317-X Aussi massif qu'évanescent, le cheval noir de la Nièvre fut inventé, modelé, sculpté de toutes pièces voici un siècle. On l'a voulu reproducteur d'élite, voué aux concours de race et authentifié par un livre généalogique. L'objectif de ses créateurs était de prendre place sur le marché des géniteurs d'exportation, marché lucratif et prestigieux, mais très encombré. Quand le cheval noir fit son entrée, les éleveurs nivernais avaient déjà réalisé leur chef-d'oeuvre : le boeuf « blanc », charolais d'origine, affiné et « marqué » dans la Nièvre. Côté chevaux, les hommes du Perche tenaient alors le haut du pavé avec leur fameux percheron, le cheval de trait par excellence, qui fascinait la riche clientèle américaine. Sur tous ces fronts, le Nivernais dut mener un combat incessant. Aujourd'hui encore, en 1988, la presse se mobilise pour la cause du « trait nivernais », le « noir de velours », « fleuron du département » dont subsistent quelques rares spécimens, choyés par des éleveurs passionnés. L'exemplaire aventure de ce mastodonte montre comment des conflits sociaux peuvent se vivre par animal interposé, notamment autour du clivage entre cheval de trait et cheval de selle, si riche de sens dans notre histoire. À partir d'une patiente et minutieuse enquëte ethnohistorique, Bernadette Lizet interroge la notion de « sang sous la masse », et nous invite à une passionnante réflexion sur l'émergence des races de trait au siècle dernier. S'y confrontent les enjeux sociaux et les données biologiques, les contraintes techniques et les représentations collectives, au rythme des revirements de la mode, mais aussi des lentes inflexions de l'histoire.Food & societybicsscAnthropologybicsscDraft horses;FranceFood & societyAnthropologyLizet Bernadette1230677PQKBBOOK9910495981403321La Bête Noire: à la Recherche du Cheval Parfait2861102UNINA
