JAMES BARON Organizational Perspectives on Stratification Organizations impinge on career outcomes in two important ways: 1) The division of labor among jobs and organizations generates a distribution of opportunities and rewards that often antedates the hiring of people to fill those jobs. 2) Organization procedures for matching workers to jobs affect the distribution of rewards and opportunities within and across firms and thus influence the likelihood of career success Why Some Firms Pay and Promote More than Others - ''Older approaches'': human capital, status attainment -more recent approach: internal labor markets INTERNAL LABOR MARKET: Competing Interpretations 1) Labor economists emphasize technical determinants: technological progress increases workers' skill monopoly in the firm and that internal advancement opportunities are required so that senior workers will train junior personnel 2) Williamson emphasizes informational constraints that favor internal labor promotion hierarchies over perfectly competitive labor market. 3) Neo-Marxists regarded internal labor markets as an effort by capitalists to control a volatile work force.

Principles of Sociology Darryl Hall Department of Sociology University of Nevada, Reno Social Stratification Social Stratification refers to the unequal manner in which scarce resources and social rewards are distributed among different social categories and groups. Life Chances refer to the likelihood of realizing a certain standard of living or quality of life, including health and well-being. • The unequal distribution of income and wealth has been remarkably stable. Large differences of income and wealth have existed as long as these data have been collected. • Also, there have been persistent differences in income and wealth between men and women, the young and old, and white and non-white Americans. Social Stratification is a Social Process • Social stratification is a characteristic of society, not simply a function of individual differences • Social stratification is universal, but variable • Social stratification persists over generations • Social stratification involves not just inequality but beliefs about inequality Major Stratification Systems Caste System – a closed system based on ascribed status (birth) - Nothing can be done to affect mobility and there are no chances of changing one’s social position - Such societies also recognize “ritual pollution” (i.e., certain types of interaction between people of different castes are prohibited because they tend to contaminate members of the higher caste)

Social Class (Stratification) September 6, 2010 by Russ Long The Arithmetic of Inequality Jimmy is a second grader. He pays attention in school, and he enjoys it. School records show that he is reading slightly above grade level and has a slightly better than average IQ. Bobby is a second grader across town. He also pays attention in class and enjoys school, and his test scores are similar to Jimmy's. Bobby is a safe bet to enter college (more than four times as likely as Jimmy) and a good bet to complete it at least twelve times as likely as Jimmy. Bobby will probably have at least four years more schooling than Jimmy. He is twenty seven times as likely as Jimmy to land a job which by his late forties will pay him an income in the top tenth of all incomes. Jimmy has about one chance in eight of earning a median income (Bassis, 1991:216). I. Basic Definitions A. Life Chances Life chances refer to one's access to resources. Life chances can refer to one's ability to get food and shelter. It also refers to access to social institution such as health care, education, the government, and the law (to mention a few). Social class affects one's life chances across a broad spectrum of social phenomenon from health care, to educational attainment, to participation in the political process, to contact with the criminal justice system.

SOCIAL STRATIFICATION Nandasena Ratnapala Society's stratification system is caused by human beings. Such divisions status regarded as high or low in status, weak or strong in power are influenced by biological, physical. Psychological, and karmic factors pertaining to moral acts and their consequences and laws pertaining to spiritual phenomena. Buddhist thinking attempts to understand these influences which, coming together causes the formulation of a particular stratification system. Primarily it is man's ignorance which causes the division of society into different levels, either based on ascription or achievement. The Buddhist approach is to understand the basis of this ignorance and realize the futility of social stratification in human society. Buddhist thinking sometimes attempts to understand people in a society by dividing them into strata based on the internal qualities they possess. The state of inner development would provide according to Buddhism, a better way of grouping people into various strata- if at all such a system is necessary. In such a division there is logical explanation and a moral or ethical base where, as in social stratifications based on caste, class or ethnicity one cannot find either an ethical or a logical explanatory process. Instead, the Buddha contributed his ideas to this interpretation of arranging the role and the status of an individual based on inner qualities. When some monks in the order began to exert influence, being conscious of their birth or lineage, the Buddha condemned such an attitude. These monks believed that the best lodging, best food etc. should go for those of noble ranks. I.e. Brahmins, kshatriyas." in the religion I teach, the standard by which precedence in the matter of lodging and the like is to be settled is not noble birth or having been a Brahmin or having been wealthy before entry into the order".(J.tr. Vol.I, 92-93).

Sociologyindex Social Stratification Books on Social Mobility Sociology Books 2008 Horizontal Social Mobility Vertical Social Mobility ... Journals Social stratification lies at the core of society and of the discipline of sociology. Social inequality is a fundamental aspect of virtually all social processes, and a person's position in the stratification system is the most consistent predictor of his or her behavior, attitudes, and life chances. Social stratification links almost all aspects of society together, and therefore understanding what is happening to social stratification helps us understand a wide range of other changes in society Social stratification is a social division of individuals into various hierarchies of wealth, status and power. There is disagreement about how to describe stratification systems, some sociologists favour the concept of class and others discuss status differentiations. Religious Affiliation and Social Stratification Catholics show a stronger propensity to remain in their crafts, and become master craftsmen, while Protestants are attracted to a larger extent to the upper ranks of skilled labor and administrative positions in factories. Protestants own a disproportionate share of capital. All other things equal, Protestants have been more likely to develop economic rationalism than Catholics. Weber seeks the explanation in 'the permanent intrinsic character of their religion,' and not only in their temporary external historico-political situations.
