This study examines how a rapidly growing aging population, the one-child policy, and economic reform in urban China pose unprecedented challenges to the country?s ingrained tradition of family caregiving. It presents interviews of matched elders and their children from a government-sponsored nursing home in Shanghai and analyzes the decision-making process of institutionalization. This book offers fresh insight into the evolving culture and arrangements of caregiving in contemporary Chinese society, illuminating the diverse needs for long-term care of Chinese elders?the world?s largest aging population?in the coming decades. 410 0$aSeries in Asian Labor and Welfare Policies,$x2730-7956 606 $aSocial groups 606 $aFamily 606 $aWelfare state 606 $aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22080 606 $aPolitics of the Welfare State$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33050 615 0$aSocial groups. 615 0$aFamily. 615 0$aWelfare state. 615 14$aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging. 615 24$aPolitics of the Welfare State. 676 $a362.60951 700 $aChen$b Lin$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0374086 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253330003321 996 $aEvolving Eldercare in Contemporary China$92532441 997 $aUNINA
