This book investigates how rapid socio-political-economic change in
China since 1949 has affected intergenerational relationships and
practices in rural areas, specifically the care provided to elderly
parents by their adult children. It focuses on the lived
experiences of rural villagers and their perceptions of the impact
of these socio-political changes on intergenerational
relationships, care of the elderly, family cohesion, and the
traditional value of filial piety. It notably considers the
importance of filial piety as a dominant family value, the conflict
between strong family bonds and growing desires for individuality
and autonomy, the prevalence of migrant work among adult children
and the diversification of intergenerational practices, alongside
the need for national policy and services development for
residential and community-based aged care in rural China.
