Thang, Leng Leng
Generations in Touch Linking the Old and Young in a Tokyo Neighborhood - London Cornell university press 2001 - 240
ГФ 20741
In Generations in Touch, Leng Leng Thang carefully elucidates how the cultural ideal of a large multigenerational household unites with the contemporary emphasis on positive personal encounters to provide a template for fostering reengagement among elders and positive attitudes toward aging among children. Set effectively within the larger context of changing family structure in contemporary Japan, the book engages the question of whether intergenera-tional togetherness can be socially engineered in an institutional setting. With its detailed analysis and accessible prose, Generations in Touch is a rich and timely contribution to the ethnographic literature on aging and family in Japan.
