Social stratification and the way of it’s mobility is a highly investigated issue this days. Class Stratification is dived into : Environmentalism, Racism (biological Darwinism), Social Darwinism, Structural theory. Almost form each of this boxes people in the world can go to another thanks the mobility which is given by the structural theory of stratification. If someone’s IQ is high enough or he has really a big talent he can migrate from the poorest class in to the privileged one. Unfortunately some people cant take a step into that mobility because of the biological Darwinism, we still have a lot of racist who will close the doors before an Indian or a Black man. Furthermore there are even countries in which it not possible to change your life status. Like India. The people of India believe that you are born into a class in which you belong. This was decided before you were born and you do not have any chance of getting into another way of life. According to their religion, Hinduism, only a reincarnation can help you with that.

Unfortunately the promises that are given thru the politic system and shown by mass media do not wider upon all the immigrant that come to United States. Therefore all the future perspectives are actually only a mirage comparing to that what waits for them actually.
