Social Mobility and Structuration

One can legitimately argue that, though the connection has not usually been made, social mobility is a consequential factor in structuration, as Giddens has defined structuration; that is, to slightly re-word Derrida's insight, in the “structuring of social structure”. There are a good number of such other factors, to be sure, just as social mobility itself is the product of not one but several convergent social forces. The point about mobility here is that many instances of structuration, seen, as Giddens (again) sees it, as the inter-action between “Agency and Structure”, cannot be realized and understood (and are in fact inconceivable) apart from the motive force of agency which mobility uniquely provides, when it is in play.
