Per Engzell @pengzell.bsky.social · 11/09/2025
Happy to be in Amsterdam today to present some work that bites the hand that feeds me
"People can see status without seeking status" Per Engzell. Research into social stratification presents a puzzle. On the one hand, across social strata, people agree on a hierarchy of prestige between occupations. On the other, they differ widely in the extent to which they seek social advancement for themselves or their children. If occupational values were shared, we would expect differences in status seeking to be smaller. I resolve this puzzle by distinguishing between consensus beliefs--what we think 'most others value--and what we ourselves value. From this, I sketch a model of status alignment showing how differing preferences shape taste for status versus other attributes. I contrast this with dominant theories that attribute social reproduction to status maintenance: the desire to avoid downward social mobility. A novel empirical test using Swedish survey data shows that status alignment offers the most consistent explanation and best model fit when mothers are asked to evaluate 82 occupations for their child. Across social strata, mothers hold accurate beliefs about what others want, but differ in what they want for their child. Status alignment, not status maintenance, drives social reproduction.
