dc.descriptionThe primary question which I try to answer in the following pages is to what extent absolute and relative social mobility changed over the 20th century. The prime focus in the analysis lies on the latter half of the century in which countries underwent first the consolidation of their industrial economies, followed by a transformation into post-industrial economies. This latter trend changed the occupational landscape markedly and arguably also affected the class system with notable consequences, like the polarization of life chances. These consequences, however, are likely to affect the stratification processes underlying social mobility (Bell, 1973 [1999]). To effectively map the fundamental transformation from the industrial to the information age as Castells (1996 [2010]) termed the current postindustrial era, and relate it to social mobility requires a conceptual tool box that is sensitive to this transformation, while still being found in the logic and language of class analysis-
