This report is a review of several proposed pictures for how matter came to be concentrated in lumps like galaxies and clusters of galaxies. The proposals cover a broad range of unrelated possibilities. I attempt here to subject these proposals to critical discussion, to discover the major problems for each case and the more promising lines for further study.
