Question | Social mobility in 1912 |
---|---|
Answer | nearly non-existent The lower classes couldn’t get jobs that paid well
because they weren’t educated or ‘skilled’ enough. Furthermore, many employers wouldn’t hire
working class people for the ‘grander’ or better jobs. Working in industry was thought by the upper
classes to be suited to the lower classes because it matched their ‘dirtiness’, and was a good way
to keep them out of view. |
