Abstract
This last chapter has two aims. First, it picks up the multiple threads that run through this work and tries to create a synopsis of the preceding chapters to provide a unified understanding of this work and its results. The remainder of this chapter tries to answer the one big final question that cannot remain unanswered in a comparative work: the question of differences between the intergenerational permeability in the United States and Germany.
