Such a focus has produced a number of infl uential overarching narratives. One such narrative is that people’s relative well-being is shaped most fundamentally by the capacity of homegrown institutions to promote economic growth and/or equity. Another, that people over time have become more stratifi ed by their relative achievement and effort rather than by the characteristics with which they are born. A third one, a corollary of the other two, is that contemporary upward social mobility is fundamentally the outcome of the adoption of better domestic institutions by countries, and/or the acquisition of greater human capital by individuals. In our recent book, Unveiling Inequality (Korzeniewicz/Moran 2009), we argue that looking at the unfolding of social inequality, stratifi cation and mobility in the world as a whole over a long period of time –in other words, from a world-historical perspective – calls these narratives into question.","40 S.","https://refubium.fu-berlin.de/handle/fub188/19600||http://dx.doi.org/10.17169/refubium-23231","eng","urn:nbn:de:kobv:188-fudocsseries000000000373-2||urn:nbn:de:kobv:188-fudocsseries000000000114-6","http://www.fu-berlin.de/sites/refubium/rechtliches/Nutzungsbedingungen","Inequality||Stratification||Social Mobility","300 Sozialwissenschaften","Inequality","on some of the implications of a world-historical perspective","Buch","open access","http://www.desigualdades.net/bilder/Working_Paper/WP_Korzeniewicz_Online.pdf","desiguALdades.net:::942284b7-4680-40d4-84a6-48aa5b697875:::600","Lateinamerika-Institut (LAI)","FUDOCS_derivate_000000001969","FUDOCS_document_000000013982","3","Working Paper Series / desiguALdades.net"
