This book makes a major contribution to our understanding of 21st
century families in Britain through an exploration of
intergenerational relationships. Drawing on new and extensive
quantitative and qualitative research, the authors explore the
giving and receiving of financial gifts. Despite growing concern
about intergenerational tension and even possible conflict, the
book finds evidence of a significant degree of intergenerational
solidarity both within families at the micro level and between
generations more generally within society at the macro level in
Britain. However, given substantial inequalities within different
generations as a result, in particular, of social class divisions,
some families are able to support each other far more than others.
This means that strong intergenerational solidarity may lead to the
entrenchment of existing intragenerational inequalities. The book
will be of interest to scholars and students researching Sociology,
Social Policy, Family Sociology, Generations and Intergenerational
Relationships.
