INTERGENERATIONAL TRANSMISSION AND ECONOMIC SEL...

European countries have faced profound changes in family structures and family forms over the
last few decades. This volume provides insights from eleven European countries with varying
welfare state arrangements  exploring the extent to which the intergenerational transmission of
attitudes  resources and values matter with regard to the economic self-sufficiency of young
people. Drawing on in-depth interviews with three generations of family members  the
contributors show how intergenerational transmission happens and what the effects of these
transmission processes are. The book reveals that family members serve as role models to
younger family members and influence their career and educational aspirations  and that there
are specific family value orientations and parental approaches which support economic
self-sufficiency in younger generations.Intergenerational Transmission of Economic
Self-Sufficiency will be of interest to students and scholars across a range of disciplines
including social work  sociology  psychology and political sociology.
