Social Stratification and Social Mobility Sorokin holds a unique place in the study of social stratification and mo- bility. We owe to him the creation or definition of many of the terms that have become standard in this field. We also owe him a distinct vision of what the study of social mobility should be mainly concerned with, namely, the courses and consequences of demographic exchanges between groups, as distinct from the study of individuals who may move up or down or sideways in the social hierarchy. Sorokin defined social mobility in its broadest sense as the shifting of people in social space. He was not, however, interested in movements of indi- viduals but in social metabolism, in the consequences of such movements for social groups differently located in the social structure. Social stratification, to Sorokin, means "the differentiation of a given popu- lation into hierarchically superposed classes." Such stratification, he held, is a permanent characteristic of any organized social group. Stratification may be based on economic criteriafor example, when one focuses attention upon the differentials between the wealthy and the poor. But societies or groups are also

social stratification The essence of sociology and the study of society - inequality, socially structured inequality. Inequality arising from the power and control of resources by certain individuals, groups, and social classes in society. Social stratification in historical societies is never - has never been identical with the system of objective functional differentiation or social contribution. In other words, some in society pay less and get more while others pay more and get less. "Them that has, gets," is the case in American society, for example. Social stratification is then, generally, the hierarchical arrangement of social classes, social castes , and social strata in a society. In Marxian theory, social stratification is explained primarily in economic terms. The distribution of resources, wealth, power, prestige, and ideologies are regarded as "having their roots" in the relationship of the differing social classes to the means of production and distribution.

26. Social Stratification Among Muslims In India By Salil Kader Imtiaz Ahmad s seminal work, Caste and social stratification Among Muslims in A duplication of the social stratification based on caste being practised http://www.countercurrents.org/dalit-kader150604.htm

Iraq War Communalism India Elections US Imperialism ... Contact Us Social Stratification Among Muslims In India By Salil Kader 15 June, 2004 Countercurrents.org I Social Stratification as Internal Challenge: The Holy Quran says, "O mankind! We (God) created you from a single pair of male and a female; and made you into peoples and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise each other). Verily the most honoured in the sight of God is (he who is) the most righteous among you… (The Holy Quran, Surah al-Hujuraat, verse 13) Conclusion: A common refrain heard from many quarters of the Muslim community in India is: 'Islam khatre mein hai' (Islam is in danger). Amazingly the danger to Islam is more from its followers than its detractors. Muslims who have strayed from the path of Islam and failed to comprehend its essence are proving to be the real threat to Islam. The Muslims of India have gained the dubious distinction of sustaining a highly prejudiced and devious system of social stratification, which is nowhere to be found in the rest of the Muslim world. The community would do itself a great favour by purging this evil from within its character. 1. The region called Malabar, also the south-west coast in Kerala, is an Indianised form of ma'bar which in Arabic means passage. Since the Arab traders passed through that region often, it came to be known by that name.

Washington State University Home Social Stratification At the core of the social stratification area is a concern with all types and levels of social inequality. Faculty within this area are actively engaged in research and teaching on structural aspects of social inequality related to race, ethnicity, sexuality, class, and gender in U.S. institutions. Department members are contributing to knowledge of how schools, families, the labor market, and formal organizations produce and maintain social inequality. At the same time, the research of scholars in this area shapes policies meant to alter long-standing systems of social stratification in the United States . WSU graduate student training in social stratification reflects this wide range of faculty interest and students are encouraged to take specialized seminars on gender, education, and labor markets.

29. Social Stratification - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia There are four main principles related to social stratification. One, stratification is a trait of the society, not the individual. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_stratification

Social stratification From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Social stratification is a sociological term for the hierarchical arrangement of social classes castes , and strata within a society . While these hierarchies are not universal to all societies, they are the norm among state-level cultures (as distinguished from hunter-gatherers or other social arrangements). There are four main principles related to social stratification: Stratification is a trait of the society, not the individual. No one person creates stratification even though it shapes all of us. Social stratification persists through generations. In most stratified societies, children will always belong to the same class, caste or social strata as their parents. However, in western societies this has started to change due to the introduction of more social mobility Stratification is extremely variable in how it orders people. Most cultures place at least some emphasis on economic standing ( wealth ), but some consider religious or social standing to be more important. Stratification is instrumental in the belief-forming process. Stratification not only places some people above others, it provides legitimacy for the claim.

Equality, Egalitarianism and Social Stratification Description, Justification, Philosophies Satanism index page By Vexen Crabtree , 2005 Jan 27 This page : Egalitarianism is the belief that everyone is equal. Satanism upholds the belief that everyone is not equal, and is broadly in sync with liberal opinions on social, moral and legal equality. People are not equal because everyone has different skills, characters and abilities. Social stratification and organized meritocracy let those with qualities rise to the top. Therefore there should be equality of opportunity, rights and legal equality, but not social or economic equality. Intellectualism aside, there is still an overriding humanitarian cause for protecting the weak, ill and disadvantaged. Read / Write comments People are Not Equal Equality of Opportunity, Rights and Equality in Law Political Inequality ... Welfare People are Not Equal People are not equal in any way, shape or form. I do believe in equal Human Rights, though. What those rights are are a different matter altogether. Socially, in terms of ability, no-one is equal to anyone else. Everyone is unique and that means that according to the situation, everyone has different talent. Not everyone can lead, not everyone can follow. Not everyone can physically defend themselves, and not everyone can understand complex thoughts. In different times and places people's skills are brought to bear. It is the individuals job to find his natural position in society. It is societies job to help those who cannot perform in some areas. Each individual was weaknesses, and without society to protect us, many of our weaknesses would be fatal. Society is essential for stability and growth.

Japanese Tanaka's works Tanaka's Home SSM Survey SSM (Social Stratification and Social Mobility) project has surveyed Japanese people's social status, social mobility, and consciousness on class and inequality, with national representative random samples. In 1955 the first survey was conducted by the Japan Sociological Society . After that basically similar surveys are repeated at intervals of ten years by temporary organizations of volunteer sociologists. The 5th survey was conducted in 1995 by the 1995 SSM Research Group, supported by Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research by Ministry of Education, Science, Sports and Culture. After the publication of the final report of the survey in 1998, the 1995 SSM Research Group dissolved itself. (Note that the SSM Survey Project does not enjoy organizational or financial support on a solid basis.) Now the data collected through the SSM Surveys are under the administration of 1995 SSM Kenkyuukai, a small committee represented by Seiyama Kazuo (University of Tokyo). Some sociologists have started to prepare for the 2005 SSM Survey. SRDQ System offers information on 1955-1995 SSM Survey data.

Proponents of structural-functional analysis suggest that since social stratification exists in all societies, a hierarchy must therefore be beneficial in helping to stabilize their existence. Conflict theorists consider the inaccessibility of resources and lack of social mobility in many stratified societies. They conclude, often working from the theories of Karl Marx , that stratification means that working class people are not likely to advance socioeconomically, while the wealthy can continue to exploit the proletariat generation after generation.
