Mobility of Social Barriers :Intergenerational mobility in the context of structural change

西方代际流动研究中的"地位获得"范式和"阶层流动"范式背后存在着两个强假设:从时间维度上讲,存在静态的社会结构背景;从空间维度上看,存在同质的变化趋势。但是当代中国的代际流动不是发生在坚实而稳固的社会结构之上的,因此代际流动就表现为"双重流动":不仅仅是人在社会樊篱间流动,而且樊篱本身的位置也发生流动。中国代际流动的根本问题不只是"流动的樊篱",而且更重要的是"樊篱的流动"。本文利用"中国社会变迁调查"数据,尝试对上述命题进行验证。

The status-attainment paradigm and the class mobility paradigm , which consist of the mainstream of intergenerational mobility research, have two hypotheses.In the temporal dimension, they presume that the social structural context is static.In the spatial dimension, they assume that the mobility has a unique trend .However, intergenerational mobility in China does not have a static structural context .In fact, there is a “ doublemobility” :agency' s mobility between social barriers and social barriers' mobility between social structure.The key issue of Chinese intergenerational mobility is the mobility of social barriers.By mining the data from “The Survey of Social Change in Urban China” , the paper has verified these propositions.The results show that the layout of social barriers has changed dramatically.The discussion of the causality of those changes may have significant influence on sociological theory.
