Abstract
This chapter examines intergenerational transmission (IGT) processes and outcomes empirically, highlighting how shifts in household composition affect transfer processes. It explores the patterning of relationships between and across generations (including the extent to which daughters’ relationships mirror those of their mothers), enabling identification of continuities and change in relation to IGT of gendered roles and ideologies. More broadly, it examines the extent to which daughters felt they were able to use these transfers to achieve human wellbeing.
