Intergenerational Wealth Transmission among Agriculturalists
This paper uses data from eight past and present societies practicing intensive agriculture to measure the transmission of wealth across generations in preindustrial agricultural societies. Focusing on embodied, material, and relational forms of wealth, we compare levels of wealth between parents and children to estimate how effectively wealth is transmitted from one generation to the next and how inequality in one generation impacts inequality i…
Domestication Alone Does Not Lead to Inequality
We present empirical measures of wealth inequality and its intergenerational transmission among four horticulturalist populations. Wealth is construed broadly as embodied somatic and neural capital, including body size, fertility and cultural knowledge, material capital such as land and household wealth, and relational capital in the form of coalitional support and field labor. Wealth inequality is moderate for most forms of wealth, and intergene…
Pastoralism and Wealth Inequality
Pastoralist societies are often portrayed as economically egalitarian, reflecting the volatile nature of livestock herds and the existence of multiple institutions that allow for the redistribution of wealth as a form of insurance. Motivated by an interest in the role of intergenerational transmission in structuring persistent inequality, we examine the extent of intergenerational transmission of material wealth (four measures) and embodied wealt…
Wealth Transmission and Inequality among Hunter-Gatherers
We report quantitative estimates of intergenerational transmission and population-wide inequality for wealth measures in a set of hunter-gatherer populations. Wealth is defined broadly as factors that contribute to individual or household well-being, ranging from embodied forms such as weight and hunting success to material forms such household goods, as well as relational wealth in exchange partners. Intergenerational wealth transmission is low …

Structure, Knowledge and Social Relationships in Teacher Education
This article is an analysis of teacher training institutions in Britain from the mid‐1950s to the present day. Over this period, such institutions have gone through three distinct phases, indicated by their changing nomenclature: teacher training college; college of education; institute of higher education. At each stage, the structure, culture, organisation of knowledge and typical modes of social interaction have been different. It is argued th…
