Featured in the Financial Times Best Books of the Year 2020 The
evidence is rigorously marshalled and the...solutions equally
clearly illuminated. A definitive study. - Martin Wolf, Chief
Economics Commentator, The Financial Times In this vital new book,
Britain's first Professor of Social Mobility Lee Elliot Major and
Stephen Machin, reveal the causes of the UK's low social mobility,
explain why it's getting worse, and outline how we reverse this
worrying trend, before it's too late. It covers the history of
social mobility in the UK, explores international comparisons,
analyses the recent 'dark age' of declining absolute mobility, and
investigates issues such as how family traits affect
inter-generational mobility. The authors then outline what it is we
should do about this pressing issue. Calling for a fundamental
shift in debates about social mobility and arguing that only by
establishing general principles of fairness in society can we agree
the major policy reforms that can make Britain a more mobile and
just society for all.
