- English abstract
- ‘This article seeks to enhance comparative understanding of the important yet under-researched social and demographic phenomenon of multigenerational care - the simultaneous provision of childcare and care of the elderly. The literature on "sandwich generations" usefully touches upon the challenges and difficulties involved in this fast-growing form of social support, but this article proposes a more precise analytical lens, that of structured ambivalence, in order to encapsulate the experience of those providing multigenerational care. The article draws upon a significant evidence base from Japan, including 4,644 questionnaires and 49 semi-structured interviews.'
