Presses are great things, libraries are great things, but they are not better things by virtue of having been put into the same organization'. He concludes, 'Both libraries and presses are better off pursuing their own aims, cooperating when useful, working separately when it is not. Surely it is not out of line to ask: Why can't we just be friends'.

We use several data sources to consider the effect of teaching practices on student beliefs, as well as on organization of firms and institutions. In individual‐level data, teaching practices
(such as copying from the board versus working on projects together) exert a substantial
influence on student beliefs about cooperation both with each other and with teachers. In cross‐country data, teaching practices shape both beliefs and institutional outcomes. The relationship between teaching practices and student test performance is nonlinear. The evidence suggests that schools, and not just families, serve to perpetuate social capital.
