Abstract This paper investigates the intergenerational occupational mobility of Chinese families using the census data and CFPS data. It reveals the direct effect of grandparents' occupational status on grandchildren's counterpart when controlling the parents' characteristics. Besides,the Chinese intergenerational occupational mobility from 1982 to 2010 shows an U-shaped tendency. The paper tries to find out the mechanism behind this tendency and comes to the conclusion that, the deepening of marketization, the one-child policy and population mobility have different effects on the inter-generational occupational mobility.
