Abstract | For the last few decades, societies in most developed countries have been characterized by rising economic inequality. Social science research has generated cross-national evidence that this rising inequality is closely related to less social mobility across generations. Literature has mainly focused on intergenerational income mobility and education mobility as the two benchmarks against which differences between the socioeconomic status of parents and their children are measured. However, although the intergenerational correlation of economic status is well known, it is much less clear what drives these correlation patterns. To develop policy measures that aim to enhance intergenerational mobility and reduce inequality in the long term, it is crucial that we understand how economic disadvantage is transmitted from parents to children. One potential factor that may help explain how socioeconomic status is linked across generations is skills and their transmission from parents to children. Both cognitive and noncognitive skills have been found to be important predictors of economic and social success. (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku). |
