Based on what you have read, do you foresee upward mobility for workers in our society? Why or why not? Do you feel you personally are on the road to upward mobility? And do you think this concept could apply to yourself?

First, read the article “Social Mobility” written by Thomas A. Diprete located at the following link:

http://www.edu.learnsoc.org/Chapters/4%20key%20concepts%20in%20sociology/11%20social%20mobility.htm

This article provides an in-depth understanding of social mobility.  His article concentrates on the process of educational attainment, the transition from school to work, and the intragenerational mobility that occurs over the working life.

Based on what you have read, do you foresee upward mobility for workers in our society?  Why or why not?  Do you feel you personally are on the road to upward mobility?  And do you think this concept could apply to yourself?
