«Amor a distancia» is the sociological essay by Elisabeth Beck-Gernsheim and Ulrich Beck, published by Ediciones Paidós in paperback.
It analyses how love, marriage and the family are transformed when their members live in different countries or continents. With the idea of «world families», Beck and Beck-Gernsheim show that globalisation is embodied in private life: video calls, travel, expenses and cultural or economic differences permeate intimacy.
Work originally published in German as «Fernliebe: Lebensformen im globalen Zeitalter» (1990); the edition in Spanish dates from 2012.
For readers interested in sociology and in how family and love life are changing under globalisation.
