معرفی
Marta Veljkovic is a Lecturer and permanent academic member affiliated with Sorbonne University, specializing in sociology with a focus on social inequalities, intragenerational mobility, class and wage trajectories, and gender disparities. She earned her Doctorate in Sociology from Sciences Po, Paris, and the National Institute of Demographic Studies (Ined) between 2018 and 2022, following a Master of Research in Sociology from Sciences Po (2016–2018) and a Bachelor of Sociology from the University of Belgrade (2012–2016). Her academic work is deeply rooted in quantitative methods and large-scale empirical analysis of career dynamics in France.
Her research interests include:
- Social inequalities and stratification
- Intragenerational mobility and career trajectories
- Class and wage mobility
- Gender inequalities in professional advancement
- The subjective experience of social mobility
- Quantitative methodologies in sociological research
The trends in her recent publications reveal a consistent focus on analyzing long-term shifts in career mobility in France, particularly how class barriers persist despite increased fluidity in job transitions. Using data from the Formation-Qualification Professionnelle survey and EGP class schema, she investigates both absolute and relative mobility, demonstrating that while career paths have become more complex, structural class boundaries remain resilient. Her work bridges academic sociology and public discourse through contributions to outlets like Pour l’Éco and the Observatory of Inequalities.
She holds active responsibilities in the academic community, including:
- Co-organizer of the Gemass scientific seminar
- Member of the editorial board of the Sociological Year
Marta Veljkovic teaches a wide range of courses at undergraduate and graduate levels, including Theory and Concepts (L1), Sociological Tradition – Contemporary French Sociology (L2), Statistics and Computer Science (L3), and advanced methods such as Quantitative Methods I, Sociology of Inequalities, and Advanced Methodology at the M1 level. She has presented her research at numerous international conferences, including the ISA RC28 Spring Meeting, ECSR, and LIVES colloquia. Although no specific students or scientific awards are listed, her extensive publication record and institutional engagement underscore her growing influence in the field of sociological inequality research.
She is involved in collaborative research with scholars such as Nicolas Duvoux, Richard Nennstiel, and Ettore Recchi, and her work is supported by access to major French social science data infrastructures like ELIPSS and Insee surveys. She does not appear to lead a lab, but her participation in Gemass—a joint research unit between CNRS, Sorbonne University, and Sciences Po—positions her within a vibrant interdisciplinary network focused on social mechanisms, networks, and inequalities.
