Resumen
MARTINS, Susana da Cruz et al. Is education still important to social mobility? A perspective of educational inequalities in Southern Europe in the European context. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2016, vol.29, n.2, pp.261-285. ISSN 0871-9187. https://doi.org/10.21814/rpe.7920.
With the widespread expansion of educational processes in Europe, some approaches that have been proposed argue that the educational dimension has been weakened as a factor involved in social mobility processes and as a structural element in social opportunities and inequalities. This paper discusses these proposals, contradicting them through alternative theoretical positions and a solid empirical base. The developed analysis envisages educational inequalities and their impacts on social mobility and inequality in targeted manner in Southern Europe and in the European context. This perspective was also sustained by a comparison between countries and recognized over time (last 60 years). Some questions were developed, empirically sustained, particularly concerning the importance of socio-educational backgrounds in the socio-education and socio-occupational destinations and the identification of patterns of social fluidity and educational inequalities, drawing matches with different educational transitions in national terms. We used as central database the European Social Survey (2012).
