The paper analyzes family-level wealth inequality and social mobility in Dudelange (Luxembourg) over five generations between 1766 and 1872, a period that saw the end of feudal social relations. While the integration of Luxembourg into the French revolutionary regime produced a reduction in the Gini coefficient for the ownership of land, the social mobility analysis reveals a relative stability of family positions within the land-wealth distribution throughout the period. This shows that family-level transmission mechanisms limit social mobility and strongly advantage those with ancestors owning property wealth, even when there are significant changes in the organization of property relations.

卢森堡的土地分配 （1766–1872）：制度变革中的家庭财富持久性


本文分析了 1766 年至 1872 年间五代人在 Dudelange（卢森堡）的家庭层面财富不平等和社会流动性，这一时期见证了封建社会关系的结束。虽然卢森堡并入法国大革命政权降低了土地所有权的基尼系数，但社会流动性分析揭示了整个时期土地财富分配中家庭地位的相对稳定性。这表明，家庭层面的传递机制限制了社会流动性，并强烈有利于那些祖先拥有财产财富的人，即使财产关系的组织发生了重大变化。
