| Summary: |
This article analyses the rates of absolute intergenerational social mobility, the changes in position in the social structure that imply hierarchical jumps between social classes, and the variation in social fluidity pattern through time for two birth cohorts in Mexico; namely, in the stage of neoliberal structural reforms and crises of the 1990s (neoliberal regression), and along the period of improvements in distributive income inequality and economic growth in the Latin American region known as the “victorious decade” (first three decades of the 20th century). The analysis design is longitudinal, based on a senior cohort (1961-1975) and a young cohort (1976-1986) with occupational trajectories that begin and mature in different periods of macroeconomic and Mexican social welfare regime changes. The hypothesis states that during the period of the “victorious decade”, there were advantageous advances in terms of social welfare, poverty reduction and income distribution in the country, as a result of conditions, such as the Oportunidades program, that were able to promote the reduction of intergenerational inequality of opportunities for social class mobility, making class borders more permeable, expanding the possibilities of vertical social movements, long distance class paths and the social fluidity of men and women |
