Abstract
This article aims to analyze the upclassing process of graduates people inSpain, with special attention to intragenerational inequality in times of crisis. The supporting data comes from the EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions survey (EU-SILC) and the 2011 population census. Based on the cohort of thirty-year-olds with higher education, a descriptive analysis of the main variables is deployed (education, employment status, trajectories of intergenerational educational and social mobility) as well as an analysis of the recent evolution of the phenomenon of social-educational downclassing. The results not only show the existence inequalities by gender and social origin -among those individuals with a high level of education and a favourable starting position to achieve employment under equal conditions- but also an increasing trend of social-educational downclassing.
