Based on the SHARE-study (Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe), Tina Schmid examines gender differences in the benefits between the generations. In doing so, she concurrently takes into account benefits from parents to their adult children as well as benefits from daughters and sons to their parents. The book’s innovative character is due to the author’s simultaneous analysis of benefits in both directions as well as the fact that, by linking questions and concepts from genealogy with those from gender sociology and the comparative study of welfare states, the author provides complex findings and contributes to the expansion of perspectives regarding temporal benefits.
