Short distance inequalities? Trajectories and social classes in Gran Córdoba, Argentina

Abstract

This article analyzes the trajectories of middle and working-class families in Gran Córdoba, Argentina, from the perspective of their social reproduction modes and strategies. Through a combination of statistical techniques such as factor analysis and a series of in-depth interviews, the research seeks to contribute empirical and conceptual elements to the debate on inequality in the middle region of the social space. The analysis, focused on temporality as the distinguishing axis of the trajectories studied, aims to provide research proposals that recover social inequality as the epistemological core of understanding contemporary social life.
