Individualization of extended family bonds? An analysis of youth narratives from three Dutch generations
Objective
This study investigated whether individualization has affected extended family bonds.
Background
Individualization theory stipulates that extended family bonds have become more unstable over time due to a shift in the main function of the family from instrumental to emotional, and an increase in individual choice at the cost of tradition. However, little empirical research exists to support this claim.
Methods
Interviews containing youth narratives on extended family bonds collected in a primary study were analyzed. In total, the analysis included the narratives of three generations from 14 families (N = 42).
Results
The results supported assumptions regarding the waning instrumental function of extended family and the increased importance of individual choice. However, the continuing importance of traditional family contact, the absence of an increase in instability across generations, and an additional finding regarding intergenerational transmission of family values made a case against intergenerational change associated with individualization. The analysis also indicated the importance of personal, family, social and historical context.
Conclusion
The results of this study only partially support theoretical assumptions on changes in extended family bonds due to individualization.
Implications
The results underline the importance of a multileveled contextual perspective on extended family bonds in family research, policy, and practice.
