A Theory of Intergenerational Mobility (2018, unknown): “If the market offers disproportionate rewards to high human capital, then even modern societies may develop social classes, with considerable mobility within but not across class boundaries.”
What Do We Know So Far about Multigenerational Mobility? (2018, background): “Lindahl et al. obtained similar results in three-generation regressions for years of education. As we have seen, some studies have not found evidence of a grandparental “effect,” and some others have. An instructive study with a combination of the two findings is Zeng and Xie (2014). Using data from”
Intergenerational Mobility in the Very Long Run: Florence 1427–2011 (2020, background): “We do not have direct evidence for Florence (and Italy) on the grandparent–grandchildren elasticity; following Lindahl et al. (2015), elasticity and AR(2) process (Table 13, column 2), we would need a two-generation elasticity slightly larger than 0.6 up to the 19th century and around 0.5 in the…”
