Abstract:	This Bachelor's thesis focuses on the study of intergenerational social mobility which can help understanding how inequality might be transferred from generation to generation. In the first part of the thesis, some of the key contributions of the literature are revised, including both, how intergenerational mobility is measured and also, what might determine for this type of mobility to increase or decrease. Some general trends and patterns included in the literature are illustrated, followed by some initial correlations between intergenerational mobility and its proposed predictors as an initial step to try to explain some of the observed differences in the trends and patterns discussed. Finally, the case of Chile is used as a case study. The role of intergenerational mobility in Chile is examined using research of other authors and an exercise to try to measure Chile's intergenerational mobility is followed by using "2001 Chilean Mobility Survey".
