Features: This book is the research outcome of the project "Social Transformation and Intergenerational Relations," a part of the Beijing Municipal Philosophy and Social Sciences "Fifteenth Five-Year" Plan. The main content includes traditional Chinese culture and intergenerational relations, changes in China's population and family planning policies and their impact on intergenerational relations, shifts in gender roles and intergenerational relations, transformations in family types and intergenerational relations, changes in living arrangements and intergenerational relations, and the relationship between cultural and educational levels and intergenerational relations. In accordance with the requirements of the Beijing Municipal Philosophy and Social Sciences Planning Office for the "Fifteenth Five-Year" philosophy and social sciences project, and in line with China's reform and opening-up and the development of socialist spiritual civilization, this book strives for innovation, focuses on practicality, reflects contemporary characteristics, and proposes new theories and perspectives. During the research process, we not only maintained the theoretical style of the research team but also absorbed theoretical insights from domestic and international studies to enrich the theory of intergenerational relations. Additionally, we utilized a large amount of survey data and specific case studies personally conducted by the research team members to conduct static, dynamic, factor, correlation, and comparative research on the changes in intergenerational relations amid social transformation. In response to the phenomenon of reverse civilization in intergenerational relations currently observed in society, we have put forward practical, feasible, actionable, and reference-worthy constructive suggestions and countermeasures. Therefore, this book is a research outcome that combines both theoretical and practical exploration.
