{"product_id":"9780253112231","title":"Generations and Globalization: Youth, Age, and Family in the New World Economy","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"This volume illuminates how families and the communities in which\u003cbr\u003e they are enmeshed negotiate everyday lives with the social, cultural, economic, and\u003cbr\u003e political resources available to them. It provides an excellent example of how\u003cbr\u003e anthropology matters to our understanding of the contemporary world and its global\u003cbr\u003e restructuring.\" -- Karen Tranberg Hansen, Northwestern\u003cbr\u003e University\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlobalization is not only a large-scale phenomenon: it\u003cbr\u003e is also inextricably bound up with intimate aspects of personhood, care, and the\u003cbr\u003e daily decisions through which we make our lives. Looking at sub-Saharan Africa,\u003cbr\u003e Madagascar, Mexico, the U.S., Europe, India, and China, Generations and\u003cbr\u003e Globalization investigates the impact of globalization in the context of families,\u003cbr\u003e age groups, and intergenerational relations. The contributors offer an innovative\u003cbr\u003e approach that focuses on the changing dynamics between generations, rather than\u003cbr\u003e treating changes in childhood, youth, or old age as discrete categories. They argue\u003cbr\u003e that new economies and global flows do not just transform contemporary family life,\u003cbr\u003e but are in important ways shaped and constituted by\u003cbr\u003e it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors are Jennifer Cole, Deborah Durham, Jessica\u003cbr\u003e Greenberg, Sarah Lamb, Julie Livingston, Roger Magazine, Andrea Muehlebach, Martha\u003cbr\u003e Areli Ramírez Sánchez, and T.
