Gender and Generations : Continuity and Change PDF
Edited by Vasilikie (Vicky) (University of Minnesota, Morris, USA) Demos, Marcia Texler (Indiana University Southeast, USA) Segal
Part of the Advances in Gender Research series
Description
This volume focuses on the ways in which gender interacts with generation.
Developed as the contributors and editors lived through the Covid-19 pandemic, the chapters offer a timely examination of gender-related changes that have occurred against the backdrop of changing socio-dynamics such as increasing and decreasing fertility and the aging of populations, and now, potentially, a global pandemic. The authors demonstrate how gendered and generational interactions intersect with class, immigration status, sexualities, and race and ethnicity. They discuss the various ways generation is defined and measured and they identify areas of intergenerational conflict.
Chapters explore how ageism differentially affects the retirement of women and men, the intersectional quality of care-giving, and generational differences in gender attitudes. While chapters primarily cover the US, intergenerational mobility aspirations and female exploitation in Eastern India is also covered.
This edited collection offers a wide-reaching look at the dynamics between gender and generations.
