Abstract: Social and economic disruptions brought about by COVID-19, such as job loss, financial difficulties, social distancing, and confinement, may affect caregiver well-being, which in turn, may have consequences on children's coping and adjustment (Cohodes et al., 2021; Prime et al., 2020). In the Philippines, over 600,000 workers reported reduced incomes due to changes in work arrangements (CNN Philippines, 2020), and women, in particular, continued to struggle with the increased burden of child care at home (United Nations Philippines, 2020). Parents and caregivers transitioned to working remotely to keep their jobs and businesses in operation and expressed concerns about balancing work with managing children's ... Read More

Abstract: The present research focuses on a highly relevant topic: the impact of economic crises on families' relationships and reactions. This study was realized during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in Spain. The COVID-19 health crisis has not only brought a new virus, but it has also brought uncertainty, despair, distress, job loss, and economic strain, among other issues. According to Deb et al., (2020), the containment measures have had an essential impact on economic activity with a reduction of 15 % in industrial production over 30 days after their implementation. Indeed, the pandemic has been a turning point in our lives and the family has not been immune to it. The family is a dynamic social system that reacts to ... Read More

Abstract: On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a Global Public Health Emergency, and a State of Emergency was declared in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia on March 22, 2020. Individuals suddenly found themselves sheltering at home for almost two months with few opportunities for in-person interactions with others beyond their immediate households.2 Many parents temporarily lost typical sources of social support and experienced a stress called parenting role captivity (Nomaguchi & Milkie, 2020) for which they had little reprieve from their parenting responsibilities, as well as additional roles such as helping children with schooling (Quah, 2020). The stress of this physical isolation ... Read More

Abstract: In the absence of a universally accepted definition of "urban" (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development/Sahel West Africa Club [OECD/SWAC], 2020; Trask, 2022), urbanization can be loosely described as the gradual increase in the proportion of people living in relatively more developed urban settlements such as towns, cities, agglomerations, and metropolitan regions (OCED/SWAC, 2020). Urbanization can occur due to increases in the total areas occupied by urban settlements due to the administrative re-classification of rural areas as urban or the transforming of the built environment that converts formerly rural settlements into urban settlements (United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs ...

Abstract: This edited volume published in 2022 examines different family-related customs amongst the Black people of South Africa. In relation to customs, it argues "that divisions and struggles within families are not new; what is new is the kind of divisions" (p. 3). With nine chapters, it is a comprehensive account of different customs and reveals historicity and resilience. The different authors draw largely from qualitative data to demonstrate how customs shape and are shaped by age, gender, class, state, etc. At the heart of the book are "narratives of people negotiating customs in the post-apartheid period" (p. 3) as customs shape and reshape different spheres of their lives. In reviewing the chapters, the density and ... Read More
