Rudolf Andorra : Social mobility, economic development and socio-professional changes in the working population of Hungary. A comprehensive survey (1930-1970).
There are different theories in sociological litterature on the factors influencing social mobility. Hungary disposes of data on social mobility from the census of 1930 and 1949, from special surveys in Budapest between the two wars, as well as from a very detailed social mobility survey by the Demographic Research Institute of the Central Statistical Office in 1962-1964. On the other hand Hungary underwent profound social and economic changes in past decades. Thus analysis and comparison of Hungarian mobility data from different periods may contribute to the understanding of the factors determining social mobility. Before 1945 social mobility was rather low, especially between the the main social strata, i.e. peasants, workers and non-manuals. It was the group of merchants and artisans, declining in number, which supplied to an important degree the inflow into the non-manual and the working class. After the Second World War social mobility increased. In consequence more than 2/3 of the professional and executive group, and more than 4/5 of the other non-manual group, originated from manual and peasant fathers, and more than half of the workers from peasants. Most of the mobility was structural. Circular mobility did not increase to an important degree. That does not mean, however, that society did not become more equal from the point of view of the chances of mobility. Intragenerational mobility played an important part in these mobility processes. Rather surprisingly upward and downard mobility in most cases were connected with achievement/resp. non-achievement/ of and appropriate school qualification. These data may be interpreted in terms of rate of economic development: After the Second Ward higher economic growth rate caused more important changes in occupational structure, as compared to the period between the two wars, and in consequence structural mobility increased.
