ESTEVEZ LESTON, Bárbara. Spatial Inequalities in Educational Attainment at the Time of One’s First Job. Estud. sociol [online]. 2022, vol.40, n.120, pp.789-823.  Epub 17-Mar-2023. ISSN 2448-6442.  https://doi.org/10.24201/es.2022v40n120.2168.

This article analyzes the links between the territorial dimension and educational attainment at the time of the first job of people residing in the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area in 2016. Through a combination of statistical techniques, the research seeks to contribute empirical and conceptual elements to the debate on the role of territory in stratification processes. Our findings suggest that living in developed territories means that a person’s previous education provides more opportunities for access to the job market, since this makes it possible to narrow the gaps in access to educational credentials by class origin. Conversely, living in territories with obvious disadvantages creates obstacles that can accumulate or be offset by the (dis)advantages of class origins.

Palavras-chave : educational attainment; territory; social class; stratification; first job.
