| Annotation | This study's premise was that normative care beliefs can inform the current care policy debate. The authors conducted latent class regression analyses on two waves of Netherlands Kinship Panel Study data (n = 4,163) to distinguish care ideals that captured multiple dimensions of normative care beliefs simultaneously. They also assessed how these care ideals have shifted in the early twenty-first century. They distinguished four care ideals: warm-modern (family and state jointly responsible for caring, egalitarian gender roles); cold-modern (large state responsibility, restricted family responsibility, egalitarian gender roles); traditional (restricted state responsibility, large family responsibility, moderately traditional gender roles); and cold-traditional (large state responsibility, restricted family responsibility, traditional gender roles). Between 2002 and 2011, there has been a shift away from warm-modern care ideals towards cold-modern care ideals. This is remarkable, because Dutch policy makers have increasingly encouraged family members to take on an active role in caring for dependent relatives. (RH). |
