Annotation | The authors present a state-of-the-art review of the literature on linkages between generations within families. Specifically, the focus is on intergenerational co-residence, upward and downward intergenerational transfers in families, and the relationship between norms of family obligation and intergenerational transfers. An overview of the academic literature on these topics is provided, as well as suggestions for future research. This research was funded by the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) under grant agreement no. 320116 for the research project Families and Societies - Changing families and sustainable societies: Policy contexts and diversity over the life course and across generations, coordinated by Stockholm University.
