There are disagreements about what constitutes social mobility, but there is broad agreement that people should have roughly equal chances of success regardless of their economic status at birth. Concerns about rising inequality have engendered a renewed interest in social mobility - especially in the developing world. However, efforts to construct the databases and meet the standards required for conventional analyses of social mobility are at a preliminary stage and need to be complemented by innovative, conceptual, and methodological advances. If forms of mobility have slowed in the West, then we might be entering an age of rigid stratification with defined boundaries between the always-haves and the never-haves - which does not augur well for social stability. 410 0$aUNU-WIDER studies in development economics. 410 0$aOxford scholarship online. 606 $aSocial mobility$zDeveloping countries 606 $aEconomic development$zDeveloping countries 615 0$aSocial mobility 615 0$aEconomic development 676 $a305.513091724 702 $aIversen$b Vegard 702 $aKrishna$b Anirudh$f1958- 702 $aSen$b Kunal$f1961- 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910522596003321 996 $aSocial mobility in developing countries$92807396 997 $aUNINA
