«Individualización y solidaridad familiar» is the sociology study by Gerardo Meil, published by the Fundación "La Caixa" in paperback (219 pages, in Spanish).
The work analyses how individualisation has transformed family dynamics in Spain, from the role of women and the decline in birth rates to the emergence of new family forms. It examines concrete practices of solidarity among relatives: mutual help, services, economic support, composition of the family network and frequency of contact. Its findings question stereotypes about family solidarity in the country and show that individualisation has redefined norms and practices.
Volume 32 of the Colección Estudios Sociales, awarded the "la Caixa" Prize in Social Sciences 2010.
Aimed at students and professionals in sociology, social work and family policies, as well as readers interested in the evolution of the family in Spain.
