Despite the momentous social and economic change of recent decades, patterns of social stratification have proven to be remarkably stable. In "From Origin to Destination", an expert team analyzes the current state of social stratification research from a comparative, international perspective. This volume presents theoretical knowledge as well as empirical evidence on questions such as intergenerational social mobility; inequalities of educational opportunity, gender and ethnicity; and the role of education in the labor market.
