Social Mobility

 

Social mobility refers to the movement of individuals or groups within a social hierarchy or stratification system. It encompasses the ability of people to move upward or downward in society in terms of social status, wealth, education, and occupation. This movement can occur within a person’s lifetime or across generations.

Please keep in mind when writing this paper, I am a female and I have three children. Any other questions, just ask.
