Understand how multigenerational family relationships can benefit
all generations! Intergenerational Relationships: Conversations on
Practice and Research Across Cultures focuses on how family and
community relationships are affected by pressing social problems.
Respected international authorities reveal how cultures from
Africa, Asia, the US, and Europe value connections among people of
different ages and how these relationships are used to address
crucial social problems. Insightful research bridges multiple
disciplines to provide a unique perspective demonstrating the
benefits of intergenerational relationships. Intergenerational
Relationships: Conversations on Practice and Research Across
Cultures presents a variety of approaches to social and
intergenerational issues from international authors. The book
discusses issues in two intergenerational categories: relationships
in families and relationships in communities. The diverse range of
content presents an enlightened view of the transformation of
societies by modern technologies and illustrates the importance of
maintaining a firm cultural identity through the relationships of
different age groups. The view that the interdependence of multiple
generations and society's common goals are inseparable is discussed
in papers that explore rites of passage, language transfer, art and
literature, community events, and research. Intergenerational
