Question

in what way does education facilitate social mobility? Explain

Answer 1

${HELLO!!}$

Social mobility is when people go up or down the social ladder.In other words, it occurs when a person or family becomes significantly richer or poorer over time. When discussed along with education, social mobility is usually about children coming to be better off than their parents.The inequality in education makes it harder for low-income families to achieve social mobility.

Answer 2

Social mobility is highly dependent on the overall structure of social statuses and occupations in a given society. The extent of differing social positions and the manner in which they fit together or overlap provides the overall social structure of such positions. Add to this the differing dimensions of status, such as Max Weber's delineation of economic stature, prestige, and power and we see the potential for complexity in a given social stratification system. Such dimensions within a given society can be seen as independent variables that can explain differences in social mobility at different times and places in different stratification systems. In addition, the same variables that contribute as intervening variables to the valuation of income or wealth and that also affect social status, social class, and social inequality do affect social mobility. These include sex or gender, race or ethnicity, and age.
