About the Book

Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Sociology - Individual, Groups, Society, grade: 1.7, University of Frankfurt (Main), language: English, abstract: Understanding factors, mechanisms and processes of upward and downward mobility in different countries remains an important scientific task of sociology around the world.

The integration of the individual into social mobility research is an important methodological task, which solution is closely linked to the development of a life-course approach to mobility.
