Class Reproduction among Men and Women in France: Reproduction Theory on Its Home Ground.
Robinson, Robert V.; Garnier, Maurice A.
American Journal of Sociology, v91 n2 p250-80 Sep 1985
A survey of employed men and women in France showed that French reproduction theory has overstated the role of education in reproducing class advantage from generation to generation. Education serves less as a reproducer of class advantage than as a vehicle of mobility into managerial positions. (Author/RM)
