The Process of Stratification: Trends and Analyses discusses the conceptual scheme developed by Blau and Duncan. The book elaborates Blau and Duncan's description and analysis of socioencomic inequality, stratification, and inequality of opportunity in American society during the early 1960s. The authors review the assumptions and methods; they point to a different direction from the widely held assumption that occupational socioeconomic status is the primary determinant to mobility. They also use the Alphabetical Index as the basis for better collection method on data relating to occupation, industry and class of worker. As regards occupational mobility, the authors note that such mobility is limited by the depletion of occupational groups that higher-status occupations have sourced from. They also point that American society is homogenous in the sense of the determinants of socioeconomic achievements can exert influence. The authors then discuss an exercise in theory construction of intergenerational transmission of income. They conclude that income mobility is similar to occupational or educational mobility; to be more precise, they note that empirical evidence should be gathered. This book can prove useful for economists, sociologists, policy makers, as well as academicians involved in societal studies.

Abstract: Using an immigrant assimilation framework, this dissertation builds upon Chiswick;s (1977) human capital model, and attempts to develop a model of occupational mobility of immigrants that takes into consideration the effect of country/context specific conditions. This study tests the fitness of Chiswick's (1977) against a proposed final model and poses questions regarding the determinants of changes in occupational status of college-educated immigrants from their country of origin to subsequent jobs in the U.S. Using Multinomial Logistic Regression and data from the 2003 New Immigrant Survey, this study found that the final model including structural predictors proved to enhance the prediction of changes in job quality over the model with only human capital factors. The following results are uncovered in the analysis: First, a large portion of foreign-educated immigrants experience a sharp decline in occupational status when they first move to the U.S. followed by a rise in job quality with time spent in the country, however, most are not able to recover all the status they lost initially. Overall, college educated immigrants had varying outcomes in terms of occupational mobility. These outcomes depended on immigrants' gender, origin, English proficiency, time spent in the United States, place of education and work experience, type of immigration visa, receiving a job offer prior to migration, and occupational licensing requirements.

Occupational Mobility in American Business and Industry, 19281952 was first published in 1955. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. Is the American occupational system rigid or flexible? How has it changed in the last twenty-five years? What factors help to influence the selection of business leaders? Questions like these are answered in this comprehensive study of occupational mobility, made by two social scientists at the University of Chicago. The study is based on information about 8,000 executives in the largest business firms of America. The rate of movement of men from various occupational backgrounds into positions of business leadership today is compared with that of 1928, as reported in the well-known study of Taussig and Joslyn, American Business Leaders. Warner and Abegglen present their complete research data, many of the findings in tabular form. The research encompasses all kinds of businesses and industries in every part of the country and persons at all levels of top management.
