Resumen
The aim of this note is to analyze some characteristics about the income mobility
problem present in Argentina during the last decade of the last century. In
order to reach this goal we propose the concept of archetypes to identify an
average economic agent in pseudo-data panel. This identification lets us follow
the archetypes through the time and using stochastic kernels we study the dynamic
distribution of three archetypes classes: Demographics, Sectors and Human
Capital. The main result of this empiric analyzes shows that the Human
Capital archetype exhibits the lowest mobility.
