摘要
The paper investigates the effects of intra-family talent transmission when human capital exhibits indivisibilities and parental financing of education involves borrowing constraints. Positive talent correlation reduces social mobility but steady state inequality and macroeconornic history-dependence are not affected. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
