- Abstract
Is the Italian family in crisis? If we mean that it is undergoing profound changes, within a context that increasingly presents itself as anomic, then yes, it is changing. However, it possesses the resources to transform itself, contrary to what many fear. We present three research where we began with a premise: interviewing people about their experiences of Christmas lunch, hypothesized as an opportunity to census family roles and belongings. The first research occurred in 2006, the second in 2017, and the third in 2022. The question remained the same. The family in 2006 is closely aligns with what common sense identifies as ‘traditional,’ with differences in membership and functions related to roles, genders and ages. Mothers, fathers, children, young and old individuals, women and men, are present. In 2017, these distinctions have blurred. Different cultures are identified across all family members and this trend continues in 2022. However, this doesn’t mean that new resources aren’t emerging. For instance, there’s a greater openness to the social context and, in the latest research, a new concept of family based on choice rather than consanguinity.
