To provide a more nuanced understanding of multicultural family relations, Chapter 4 delves into the context surrounding domestic tension and conflicts, especially those related to economic issues. I find that economic anxieties saturate multicultural families in the fissure between the projected image of an economically developed Korea and the lived reality of rural Korean families who receive marriage migrants. The chapter discusses how the so-called “Fairy and the Woodcutter Syndrome”—Korean husbands’ (and family members’) fear that marriage migrants will leave them—combined with economic anxiety, lead them to confine Filipinas physically and financially. The chapter also examines Koreans’ economic culture of frugality (kŭngŏm chŏlyak), which contributes to making homes oppressive for marriage migrants. Finally, it shows how economic anxiety pushes Filipinas out of their homes to exercise their economic agency and facilitate economic integration.

This chapter sets the stage for the rest of the book, describing key political economic events, conditions, and changes in Canada, Mexico, and the United States from the 1940s to the early 1980s. The US government was broadly keen on regional economic integration throughout this period, but Canada and Mexico were opposed. As a consequence, this was in some ways a period of deglobalization. Canadian economists advocated freer trade (like their counterparts in the United States), but Canadian businesspeople prevented the state from pursuing it. In Mexico, political elites maintained a closed economy because they subscribed to the developmentalist economic ideas of the day. Public opinion everywhere was little informed about international economic issues, and had no significant role to play in shaping public policies.

Common Policy

Summary The European Union is the most complex and by any aspect the most unique example of a regional economic integration. Its origin, evolution and survival are based on a common legislative and institutional framework. The so-called common policies implemented in a number of economic and non-economic areas are particularly distinctive. Most of them are implemented on two levels: national and communal. The only common policy that is fully implemented at the European Union level is the Community Agrarian Policy (CAP), whereas the agriculture has the highest expenditure in the communal budget. The function of CAP is primarily economic as its goals are strictly related to economic issues: price stability of agricultural products, productivity growth, higher wages for the farmers, etc. The CAP strengthens the Union’s social cohesion, which is of utmost importance in times of constant crises, BREXIT and other extreme instabilities. For this reason, the CAP has been in the processes of continuous reforms (MacShary, Mansholt and those of recent times) for decades, in order to increase its efficiency and justify enormous financial investments. The CAP results depend on the achievement of preset objectives and the exchange of agricultural products and food that the European Union generates globally. It has been demonstrated that the CAP is a significant common policy, both in achieving economic goals and in the sphere of strengthening communal cohesion.

Psychische Auffälligkeiten

Zusammenfassung. Fragestellung: Bislang liegen für den deutschen Sprachraum kaum Instrumente vor, die familiäre Beziehungen aus der Perspektive von Jugendlichen reliabel erfassen, und der Zusammenhang zwischen familiären Beziehungen aus der Sicht von Jugendlichen und Verhaltensauffälligkeiten von Jugendlichen ist auch international bisher nur wenig untersucht worden. Methodik: Auf der Basis des Family Relations Test, der ursprünglich nur für Kinder entwickelt worden ist, wird mit dem Family Relations Test für Kinder und Jugendliche ein familiendiagnostisches Verfahren entwickelt, das Familienbeziehungen aus der Perspektive von Jugendlichen erhebt (94 Items davon 44 % neu formuliert). Dieser Test wurde in einer klinischen Stichprobe (n = 152) und einer Feldstichprobe (n = 132) durchgeführt. In der klinischen Stichprobe wurden zusätzlich Verhaltensauffälligkeiten der Jugendlichen im Selbst- und im Elternurteil erhoben. Ergebnisse: In der zweifaktoriellen Lösung der Hauptkomponentenanalyse ergeben sich eindeutige Ladungen der Items, die positive bzw. negative Beziehungsanteile auf jeweils einem Faktor beschreiben. Die internen Konsistenzen (Cronbachs Alpha) der Gesamtskalen, die positive und negative Beziehungen erfassen, liegen zwischen .91 und .93. Jugendliche aus der Klinikstichprobe beschreiben auf diesen Gesamtskalen insgesamt in ihren Familien stärkere negative Beziehungen als Jugendliche in der Feldstichprobe. Innerhalb der Klinikstichprobe konnten zum Teil deutliche Korrelationen zwischen dem Ausmaß der psychischen Auffälligkeiten der Jugendlichen und den berichteten Familienbeziehungen festgestellt werden. Schlussfolgerungen: Positive und negative Beziehungen von Jugendlichen lassen sich aus der Perspektive der Jugendlichen reliabel und faktoriell valide erfassen. Hypothesengemäß werden signifikante Zusammenhänge von negativen Familienbeziehungen und psychischen Auffälligkeiten festgestellt. Die Jugendlichenversion des Family Relations Test erweist sich als ein nützliches Instrument, um familiäre Beziehungen aus der Perspektive von Jugendlichen zu erheben.

Model Family

According to the intergenerational solidarity model, family members who share similar values about family obligations should have a closer relationship and support each other more than families with a lower value consensus. The present study first describes similarities and differences between two family generations (mothers and daughters) with respect to their adherence to family values and, second, examines patterns of relations between intergenerational consensus on family values, affectual solidarity, and functional solidarity in a sample of 51 mother-daughter dyads comprising N = 102 participants from Luxembourgish and Portuguese immigrant families living in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Results showed a small generation gap in values of hierarchical gender roles, but an acculturation gap was found in Portuguese mother-daughter dyads regarding obligations toward the family. A higher mother-daughter value consensus was related to higher affectual solidarity of daughters toward their mothers but not vice versa. Whereas affection and value consensus both predicted support provided by daughters to their mothers, affection mediated the relationship between consensual solidarity and received maternal support. With regard to mothers, only affection predicted provided support for daughters, whereas mothers’ perception of received support from their daughters was predicted by value consensus and, in the case of Luxembourgish mothers, by affection toward daughters.
