Stratification and Mobility in a Latin American City: Santiago, Chile, 1961: Supplemented with Treiman Prestige Scores (M026V1)

The purpose of this study is to identify the difference in mobility opportunities between migrants and non-migrants in Santiago, Chile, as well as explored the four main differential factors in their occupational mobility: age at arrival, length of residence in Santiago, size of community at birth, and importance of a farm background. Later, Donald Treimen, a Professor of Sociology at UCLA acquired the data and supplemented the Prestige scores as a secondary scale of measurement.
