Abstract

La movilidad social es un campo de estudio clásico de las ciencias sociales que ha cobrado gran relevancia en la literatura económica en los últimos años. Mientras que el enfoque económico habitualmente se centra en la transmisión intergeneracional del ingreso o del nivel educativo, abordajes tradicionales provenientes de la literatura sociológica han dedicado mayor atención a la correlación entre la inserción ocupacional de padres e hijos. Este trabajo combina estas dos tradiciones analíticas, aplicando las herramientas del análisis económico moderno al problema de la movilidad ocupacional intergeneracional. Utilizando la base de datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Estructura Social (ENES 2014-2015), presentamos evidencia de asociación entre diversos atributos laborales de padres e hijos, incluyendo calificación, formalidad, jerarquía e inserción sectorial. Argumentamos que esta correlación, consistente con el modelo teórico clásico, supone desafíos considerables para la política pública.
