Abstract

En este trabajo se examina la movilidad social en el departamentode Córdoba entre los anos 2003 y 1996, especialmente en las zonasurbanas. El fenómeno se analiza desde la perspectiva educativa y ocupacional, y se establecen relaciones entre el nivel educativo y lacondición de pobreza, enfatizando en la transmisión intergeneracional de esta última a partir de la educación del jefe del hogar. El documento explora igualmente las relaciones entre los patrones de desarrolloeconómico del departamento, los mercados laborales y la estructurade oportunidades. Se construyen matrices de movilidad, y se utilizanescalares para crear indicadores que complementen el análisis de lasasimetrías entre los distintos grupos sociales. Se encontró evidenciade movilidad absoluta y relativa en Córdoba, lo que quiere decir quelos hijos tienen alta probabilidad de superar a los padres en una misma generación; sin embargo, las ganancias en movilidad se presentan enlos niveles de educación menores al capital educativo básico (12 anos), y, por tanto, pueden considerarse bajas e insuficientes para reducir lapobreza intergeneracional como consecuencia de las restricciones ala acumulación de capital humano.
