O Brasil que sobe e desce: uma análise da mobilidade socioocupacional e realização de êxito no mercado de trabalho urbano

Picanço, Felícia

Resumo

This article analyzes socio-occupational mobility in the Brazilian urban work market in 1988 and 1996 from the perspective of success, by sex and color. Achieving success is a dimension created to describe the types of individual movements, whereby those who rise, fall, or remain in the same position can perform successful or unsuccessful movements, depending on their point of departure. The overall mobility and success rates are presented for men, women, blacks, and whites, analyzing the effects of innate characteristics (age, sex, and color), acquired traits (schooling, first occupation, and entry into the work market), and social origins (paternal and maternal schooling and paternal stratum) on the odds of achieving success.

Palavras-chave: mobility; work market; inequality.
