In den schriftlichen Quellen des 12. Jahrhunderts wurde sozialer Aufstieg als Argument in den Debatten um soziale Gerechtigkeit, religiose Normen und Privilegien genutzt.
In the present study Dominik Buschken uses narrative sources to examine medieval patterns of perception of social mobility, the influence of medieval interpretations on social advancement opportunities, and analyses the function that social mobility could assume for the system of society. Especially the function was not only in contradiction to pre-modern explanatory patterns of social reality, but also lay outside the perspective of contemporary writers. In the debates about social justice and godliness, social origin and social advancement were always an argument for the valid social conceptions of the authors and thus against social mobility and social advancement.
