Abstract

Drawing on qualitative interviews and focus groups with 35 community leaders, this article investigates how community leaders understand norms of care for older people in Zambia. I ask what leads older people in Zambia to receive good care from family. The findings show that across both rural and urban settings, respondents related profoundly powerful norms of reciprocity in both family and community care, with older people viewed as reaping what they have sown in terms of religious and economic contributions throughout their lives. The study raises challenging questions from a rights-based perspective as to who is deserving of care.

赞比亚农村和城市社区领导人对老年人良好家庭护理规范理解的看法

本文通过对35位社区领袖的定性访谈和焦点小组，调查了赞比亚社区领袖如何理解老年人护理规范。我想知道是什么让赞比亚的老年人得到家人的良好照顾。调查结果显示，在农村和城市环境中，受访者都将家庭和社区护理中强有力的互惠准则联系起来，老年人被视为收获了他们一生在宗教和经济贡献方面所播种的东西。这项研究从基于权利的角度提出了具有挑战性的问题，即谁应该得到照顾。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
