Intergeneration social mobility is an old concern in both sociology and economics and refers to a change in the status of family members from one generation to the next. In the line with Markov Chain Theory, in this paper, we provide estimates for intergenerational mobility, which is measured in terms of probabilities. We believe that the social mobili many other natural and social science process can be represented by Markov matrices. The results from this study show that after 7 generations the distribution has converged to its stationary point. Meaning, if there is no policy initiative to shift the intergeneration immobility; UK will remain with distribution showing inequality and different opportunities for the young generations depending on their parental background. In addition, over time the number of individual belonging to low-income class increased, from 0.21 to 0.289. This implies that in UK, the income inequality has been increasing trough the period. formulated by using the Wolfram Mathematical Programming System.
Gender is a social construct that outlines the roles, behaviors, activities and features that a particular society believes are appropriate for men and women. Gender equality is necessary in order to ensure a fair and productive labor market. Even though, Bosnia and Herzegovina has established legal framework including gender equality laws, women are still facing barriers to participation in the labor market. This research paper will indicate what are the main challenges behind the low participation of women in the labor market. It will provide information on gender differences; the main challenges, and also emphasize gender stereotypes which are contributing the gendered division in labor market.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
