Education and Social Mobility: The Changes of Educational Stratification and Social Mobility in Korea



The four-year-project "Education and Social Mobility" is designed for archiving data, and analysing education inequality and the role of education in social mobility among the cohorts born between 1943 and 1986. Considering the rapid social change and the rapid expansion of educational opportunities in Korea, we need to archive data for comparative study by time period, and for social mobility study in gender perspective which has been neglected as well. The data is composed of basic items of educational experiences and jobs of both respondents and their parents, and additional items for each cohort.
