This expression describes the movements of individuals or family units within the system of socio-professional categories or-for writers who prefer this expressionthe system of social classes. The mobility of individuals is generally described as ‘intragenerational’. The mobility of families from one generation to another is called ‘intergenerational’. More specifically, ‘intergenerational’ or ‘between generation’ mobility studies the relationship between the status or original position of individuals and their actual position in the socio-professional category system. It is above all this last form of mobility that continues to attract the attention of sociologists.
