Intergenerational Occupational Mobility in the Late 19th Century United States.
Guest, Avery M.; And Others
Social Forces, v68 n2 p351-78 Dec 1989
Finds somewhat greater upward mobility and less father to son occupational inheritance among 1962 and 1973 cohorts of 25- to 34-year-old White U.S. men than among late nineteenth-century men, but the differences are smaller when comparisons are restricted to the nonfarm sector. Contains 39 references. (SV)
