| Abstract: | The authors explore the differential permeability of three class boundaries - the boundaries determined by property, authority and expertise - to intergenerational mobility among men in four developed capitalist economies: the United States, Canada, Norway and Sweden. The authors conclude: (1) In all four countries, the authority boundary is the most permeable to intergenerational mobility; (2) In the two North American countries, the patterns of permeability of class boundaries are broadly consistent with the expectations of neo-Marxist conceptualizations of class. |
