An untouchable getting converted to Christianity, is an example of
horizontal mobility
vertical mobility
social mobility
None of the above
- When an untouchable converts to Christianity, their social status in the caste system changes significantly.
- Option 1: Horizontal mobility – This is a movement within the same social level or class, like changing jobs but remaining in the same class.
- Option 2: Vertical mobility – This is a movement up or down the social hierarchy, like moving from a lower to a higher class or vice versa.
- Option 3: Social mobility – This is a broad term that includes both horizontal and vertical mobility.
- Option 4: None of the above – Means the change doesn't fit any kind of social mobility.
Correct Answer:
Option 2: Vertical mobility
- Converting from being an "untouchable" (very low social status) to Christianity (which doesn't recognize caste), is considered an upward movement in social hierarchy.
