Mobility and Inequality delivers on its promise to integrate sociological and economic approaches to inequality. Leading scholars assess the past and set the future agenda for mobility research."—Mike Hout, University of California, Berkeley
"In
Mobility and Inequality, some of the very best scholars in economics and sociology bring the intergenerational mobility literature forward in ways that conventional journal articles generally are unable to do.
