Continuities And Changes In Marshallese Grandparenting, Laurence Marshall Carucci
Continuities And Changes In Marshallese Grandparenting, Laurence Marshall Carucci
Pacific Studies
For Marshallese, grandparents do not exist as independent types of kin. A grandparent is a partner in a reciprocal grandparent/grandchild relationship. The relationship is not grounded in either biology or unchanging social status; rather, it is constructed out of practical activities as members of a shared community. Grandparents who actively earn respect in their relationships with others are recognized collectively as senior grandparents of the community or communal grandparents. This paper examines continuities and changes in the activities and social significance of grandparents of the community across three decades and four different social settings. The paper focuses on how shifting …
In My Nana's House: Grandparent Households In Fiji, Sela Panapasa
In My Nana's House: Grandparent Households In Fiji, Sela Panapasa
Pacific Studies
This paper uses a combination of household census data and case material to examine change in grandparent status and role in Fiji in the context of develop ment and the impacts of modernization and population aging. On one hand, there is more need and pressure for grandparents to be caregivers of grand children and sources of stability and continuity within family and home. On the other, there are the increased costs associated with greater longevity among the grandparent generation, such as care of a frail and dependent grandparent. Social exchange theory is used to compare these costs and benefits across …
Continuing To Be A Mother: Grandmothering On Pollap, Juliana Flinn
Continuing To Be A Mother: Grandmothering On Pollap, Juliana Flinn
Pacific Studies
Perspectives from human evolution and life cycle development frame this paper on grandmothering in a Micronesian setting. On Pollap Atoll in the Central Caroline Islands, being a grandmother is part of a developmental process that involves aging and a changing parental role. Being an older woman is interwoven with being a grandmother in much the same way as being an adult woman is interwoven with being a mother. Much of the work of a grandmother toward grandchildren involves continuing responsibilities to one's adult child. Today's grandmothers continue to carry out these responsibilities in the context of adaptation to migration. The …
Guest Editors' Preface: Special Issue Negotiating Grandparenting: Styles And Strategies In A Changing Pacific, M. Jocelyn Armstrong, Juliana Flinn
Guest Editors' Preface: Special Issue Negotiating Grandparenting: Styles And Strategies In A Changing Pacific, M. Jocelyn Armstrong, Juliana Flinn
Pacific Studies
This preface introduces a collection of anthropological studies that explore grandparenting practices in Pacific societies, situating them within the global context of population aging and evolving family dynamics. As longevity increases worldwide, grandparenting has gained prominence across disciplines and regions. This volume highlights how cultural values, historical contexts, and contemporary changes—such as shifts in education, economy, migration, and family structure—shape the roles and meanings of grandparents in Pacific communities. Three key themes emerge: the relationship between grandparenting and elder status, the diverse styles of grandparenting influenced by identity factors like gender and ethnicity, and grandparenting as an adaptive strategy in …

Epilogue: A New Look At Grandparenting, Françoise Douaire-Marsaudon, Alan Howard
Pacific Studies
The papers in this special issue of Pacific Studies signal a growing interest in grandparents and the roles that they play in times of profound social, cultural, and demographic change. In this Epilogue we attempt to distill from the preceding seven essays' themes that reflect the various ways in which grand parenthood is adapting to these conditions in selected Pacific Islands. The challenge, as we see it, is to establish how senior citizens, including grandparents and great-grandparents, are embedded in a set of social relationships, and then to determine which variables-lineage and household structures, economic contributions, proximity, activities participated in, …
