PLA, Jésica Lorena. Modernity, social inequality and uncertainty: notes to think social stratification processes from a dynamic perspective. Trab. soc. [online]. 2013, n.20, pp.249-258. ISSN 1514-6871.
Social stratification refers to the distribution of different positions in a society, based on unequal distribution of property and services. It makes social inequality inherent component of it and one of social mobility its determinants. This complex process between inequality and mobility is a characteristic of modernity and its "freedom" in the double sense of political and legal means of production. This "social question" has opened the debates on how to respond to it. The following article try to review these debates, particularly around the way people found to plan their daily and family life "conditioned" paradoxically this double freedom. Eventually this situation re-builds perceptions of uncertainty and risk about it. So, the objective is to rethink the contribution of these theoretical approaches to analyze the processes of social mobility in general, and stratification in particular, as a result thereof. As we know the pattern of social mobility that fits a society, we can think the underlying social structure when it comes to social inequality, in their study, social classes become visible. It thus seeks to contribute to the knowledge of social inequality from a perspective that allows re-build the space to explain and predict the maximum number of differences between a given set of subjects.
