Resumen
Este estudio estima la relación entre los años de educación de jefes de hogar y sus padres. Se observa a las generaciones nacidas entre 1950 y 1989 en el Perú, utilizando múltiples años de la Encuesta Nacional de Hogares. Ello nos permite analizar con mayor detalle la evolución general de la movilidad social en el país, así como la de diferentes grupos demográficos, geográficos y étnicos durante la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Se encuentra que la relación entre el nivel educativo de los padres para con sus hijos es positiva y significativa a lo largo de todo el periodo analizado. Sin embargo, el coeficiente beta de transmisión educativa intergeneracional disminuye marcadamente a través de las décadas estudiadas; es decir, se observa un aumento del grado de movilidad y oportunidades de mejora educativa. El coeficiente beta de transmisión es bastante elevado para aquellos nacidos entre 1950 y 1959 (0,74), pero menor a 0,45 para aquellos nacidos entre 1980 y 1989. Asimismo, el coeficiente de transmisión intergeneracional presenta marcadas disparidades y tendencias desiguales, de acuerdo con el grupo analizado. La reducción del coeficiente beta de los jefes de hogar mujeres es superior a la de los jefes de hogar hombres. Aquellos jefes de hogar autoidentificados como «mestizo» y nacidos entre 1980 y 1989 presentan un coeficiente beta de 0,41; mientras que aquellos autoidentificados como «negro o mulato» del mismo cohorte presentan un coeficiente de 0,59. El grupo identificado como «negro o mulato» es el que experimenta la menor reducción del coeficiente beta a lo largo de los años
This study estimates the relationship between parents’ years of education and that of their children. We use multiple waves of the national household survey (ENAHO) to cover generations born in Peru between 1950 and 1989. This allows us to analyze in greater detail the general evolution of social mobility in the country, as well as different demographic, geographic and ethnic groups during the second half of the 20th century. We find that the relationship between parents’ education levels and those of their children is positive and significant throughout the period analyzed. Nevertheless, the beta coefficient of intergenerational transmission of education diminishes markedly throughout the decades. It is particularly high (0.74) for those born between 1950 and 1959, but below 0.45 for those born between 1980 and 1989. Furthermore, there are great disparities and irregular trends depending on the groups analyzed. There is a greater reduction of the beta coefficient in the case of female heads than of male heads. Household heads self-identified as “mestizo” and born between 1980 and 1989 have a beta coefficient of 0.41; while those self-identified as “negro o mulato”, born within the same time frame, show a beta coefficient of 0.59. Household heads self-identified as “negro o mulato” experience the least reduction of the beta coefficient throughout the years
