@article { , title = {Presenting a new defamilization and familization framework for investigating the residualization of old‐age income security measures—The case study of Hong Kong}, abstract = {Familisation and defamilisation studies are increasingly seen as an important component of welfare research. They are concerned with the threats to individuals’ welfare caused by involuntary participation in the unwanted family relationship. Moreover, they address that the government has the potential to reduce these threats through the provision of welfare measures. This article is intended to contribute to the familisation and defamilisaion studies with the focus on the link between these studies and the studies of residualisation strategies. It has two objectives. The first is to present a new defamilisation and familisation framework for examining the implications of the residualisation strategies used by the government to reform the old age income security system. The second is to demonstrate the empirical significance of this framework. To meet these objectives, three analytical tasks are conducted – i. to discuss the key elements of the defamilisation and familisation, ii. to examine the usefulness of this framework in the analysis of the residualisation strategies, and iii. to apply this framework to the investigation of the main old age income security measures in Hong Kong.}, doi = {10.1111/aswp.12192}, eissn = {1753-1411}, issn = {1753-1403}, issue = {1}, journal = {Asian Social Work and Policy Review}, pages = {53-60}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {Wiley}, url = {https://nottingham-repository.worktribe.com/output/3342831}, volume = {14}, keyword = {Defamilisation, Familisation, Residualisation strategies, Old age income security system}, year = {2020}, author = {Yu, Sam Wai Kam and Chau, Ruby Chui Man and Jung, Min-a} }
