AnnotationThis paper concerns the link between care of elderly people and expectations of inheritance, and derives its findings from the uncovering - during the course of interviews and concerning other questions - of several incidents of largely unreported, serious, domestic violence. Each case involves an older woman and younger female relative. Publication of the final paper, from CSPRD, is forthcoming.
