Globalisation has resulted in, and has implications for, new and diverse patterns of family and intergenerational relations and support. The traditional patterns of reciprocity are increasingly being challenged by the changing dynamics of ageing and family life; across the world such patterns and processes require revision and reframing. These are the themes developed within this book.
The international contributors, all well known in this field, provide a comparative insight to established concepts such as reciprocity and new themes such as intergenerational ambivalence. They address both theoretical frameworks for making sense of the new dynamics of ageing as well as providing a series of case studies illustrating the key issues. Students, academics, professionals and policy makers will find this text of particular value with its synthesis of current research and fresh analytical lens on intergenerational relations.
