This book explores generation as both a reference to family or kinship structures, and a reference to cohorts or age sets. The principal objective is branching out this two-part concept through studies of tensions and solidarity within and between generations of advanced and robust welfare states. Answering key questions using multiple disciplinary approaches, the book considers how generations challenge advanced and robust welfare states; how new and young generations are affected by living in an advanced welfare state with older generations; how tensions or solidarity are understood when facing challenges; and what the key characteristics are of certain generation types. It contributes to the development of a more comprehensive generation approach within social sciences by developing the concept of generation by exploring different challenges to the welfare state such as migration, digitalization, environmental damages, demands for sustainability, and marginalization. Highlighting the esca:at:ng tensions and altered veneris 0' solidarity between generations, t-:s book shows how a comprehensive concept of a generation can create new insights into how we collectively coordinate and resolve challenges through the welfare state. it will be of interest to all scholars and students of social policy, sociology, political science, and social anthropology.

This book draws a sociological portrait of the age group born in the 1970s in Estonia and discusses its generational features and constructions. This cohort’s coming of age coincided with the social and emotional turmoil of the re-independence movement in the late 1980s and with the transformation of society in the 1990s. This was the first cohort to negotiate its transition to adulthood in the new society, starting some new patterns of socialization, while also sharing some practices and experiences with older cohorts. Based on qualitative interviews as well as an analysis of media discourses and statistical data, the book traces the emergence of a new generation that draws its very own lessons from the past and from the social transformations that influenced life courses and careers. The book provides an intriguing discussion of socialization patterns and generation formation against the backdrop of post-socialist transformation. In addition, it provides a fascinating insight into the mind-set and experiences of a generation in the making, already shaping today’s society and culture.

La famille, le couple, les relations entre générations revêtent aujourd’hui des réalités multiples. Y a-t-il de nouvelles formes de conjugalité ? Que signifie être en couple sans vivre ensemble ? Quelle influence la religion a-t-elle sur le mariage et les naissances ? Quelles sont les implications d’une séparation sur l’histoire familiale des enfants ? Le partage des tâches au sein du couple a-t-il changé ? Les grandes étapes du « passage à l’âge adulte » ont-elles évolué depuis 20 ans ? Désire-t-on un deuxième enfant dans les mêmes conditions que le premier ? Les relations entre parents et enfants adultes ont-elles changé ? Qui sont les grands-parents d’aujourd’hui ? Afin de rendre compte des nouveaux comportements démographiques en France, l’Ined et l’Insee ont interrogé 10 000 personnes, représentatives de la population en 2005 (Enquête Étude des relations familiales et intergénérationnelles). Parce que la famille n’en finit pas de se réinventer et que ces évolutions concernent ce qui nous touche le plus, ces témoignages, analysés ici par des sociologues, démographes, économistes et statisticiens, permettent de dresser différents « portraits de familles », représentatifs des évolutions en profondeur qui touchent nos sociétés depuis ces dernières décennies.
