 Clans - Economics Dictionary of Arguments
 
Clans: A clan is a group of people united by real or perceived kinship and common descent. In economics, especially economic history, the clan is studied as an informal institution or social organization. It promotes cooperation, trust, and risk-sharing among members, often serving to enforce agreements and provide public goods where formal markets or state institutions are weak. See also Cooperation, Organisation, Clubs, Family.
