| Abstract [eng] |
Intergenerational solidarity in the Baltic states and Nordic countries has gained heightened significance, catalyzed by the COVID-19 pandemic. This research delves into the evolving dynamics of mutual support, care, and respect across generations, emphasizing the role of family values, sociocultural context, and economic factors. Amid global health challenges, intergenerational cooperation emerged as essential, with older individuals’ vulnerabilities underscoring the need for assistance and support from younger generations. By analyzing responses from these regions, the study explores functional and economic exchange, while considering cultural values and historical influences. The pandemic’s impact on assistance patterns and the interplay between COVID-19 restrictions in Baltic and Nordic countries are examined. Ultimately, this research sheds light on the intricate fabric of intergenerational relationships, offering insights into maintaining societal resilience and cohesion during transformative times. |
