Presence and personhood: What Covid-19 taught us about the relational care of family caregivers for people with dementia in residential aged care
COVID-19 lockdowns and infection control restrictions provide a lens through which to explore the important forms of relational and relationship-centred care that are provided by family caregivers for people with dementia living in residential aged care. Insights from qualitative research conducted in the Australian cities of Perth and Adelaide highlight the importance of familiar, intercorporeal and interaffective presence to sustaining well-bei…
Triple Absence and the Crisis of Presence: Ethnographic Reflections on Migrants with Dementia in Australia
The clock is ticking: (Dis)orientations to Ageing and End-of-Life Care in Advanced Capitalism and Care Directives
This article engages Italian migrant experiences and enactments of futurity to problematize neoliberal anticipatory approaches to ageing and care. Stepping beyond the focus on atomized and agentic individuals and a singular imagined future defined by notions of advancement and progress, sistemazione (home, future, and security) offers ways of building alternative and relational futures within times and spaces of shared precarity. We draw on ethno…
Comusichiamo . First Language, Life-Soundtracks and Storytelling to Support the Cultural Wellbeing of Migrants Living with Dementia
This study, located at the intersection of anthropology, ageing, music therapy and dementia, explores the value of music, life-storytelling and first language, to support the cultural identity and wellbeing of people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds living with dementia in Australia. It uses participant observation, the collection of oral histories and ‘life soundtracks’ to co-create a song with older Italian migrants and th…
The impacts of Covid-19 restrictions on care-givers of people with cognitive impairment and their support needs: A mixed-methods systematic review
The COVID-19 pandemic and ensuing restrictions/lockdowns have caused significant physical and psychological consequences for people with cognitive impairment who are heavily dependent on their care-givers. However, little is known about the impact on care-givers, the factors that exacerbate their situation and what supports they need. The aims of this paper are threefold: (a) to examine the impact of COVID-19 physical restrictions on both formal …
Beyond authenticity: An ethnographic reflection on Italians in Australia and Italians in Italy
This article highlights a divergence between equivalent cultural practices undertaken by Calabrians in Italy and by individuals originating from Calabria living in Australia. It offers a reflexive framework on identity and authenticity. Previous research on a group of Calabrian-Australian families living in Australia found a widespread feeling among participants that they were ‘more Italian’ than the Italians who live in Italy. On the other hand,…
Thrown into the world: The shift between pavlova and pasta in the ethnic identity of Australians originating from Italy
Forty-one years on from Huber's study exploring the assimilation of Italian-Australians, an increasing trend towards ethnic revival can be observed among the third generation of immigrants. Drawing on a case study of a family originating from Calabria in the 1950s and now living in Adelaide, South Australia, I find a widespread intergenerational identification of ethnicity as 'being Italian', which has different meanings across the three generati…
Comparatico (godparenthood) as an emblematic form of social capital among Australian families originating from rural Calabria living in Adelaide, South Australia
This paper examines the spiritual kinship known in Italian as ‘godparenthood’, as it is practised among families originating from specific rural areas of Calabria, southern Italy, who live in Adelaide, South Australia. In the Catholic rite of baptism, the (godparent) is a person who promises to share the responsibility of the child’s education with the parents. For the participants of the present study, however, the relationship among (godparents…
An intergenerational conceptualisation of Italian-Australian ethnic identity through Bourdieu and Heidegger
This paper provides a phenomenological reconceptualisation of ethnic identity. Drawing upon a case study of a family originating in Calabria, Italy, and living in Adelaide, South Australia, I consider the way in which the three generations perceive their ‘being ethnic’ across time and space. The first-generation participants were born in Italy and migrated to Australia during the 1950s; the second generation are their children; and the third gene…
The "Double Absence" of the Immigrant and Its Legacy across Generations among Australians of Italian Origin
The present paper discusses the concept of “double absence” and its legacy across three generations of participants. It seeks to illustrate the impact of this cognitive condition in relation to participants’ personal, interactional, and institutional social fields. Specifically, the study attempts to frame a reflexive picture extrapolated from participants who in their narratives deliberately reported certain incidents that might have shaped, dia…
Ethnic identity and race: The "double absence" and its legacy across generations among Australians of Southern Italian origin. Operationalizing institutional positionality
The paper provides a discussion on the concept of "double absence" and its legacy among participants originating from Calabria, Italy. It illustrates the impact of such an embodied affective state in light of race-ethnic relations perceived intergenerationally. While the first generation of participants manifest a condition of feeling "absent", the second generation present a condition of "liminality", as a result of a socialization process betwe…
Family Alliances andComparaticoamong a Group of Calabrian-Australian Families in Adelaide, South Australia
The present study examines baptism godparenthood, the Italian spiritual kinship system (known as comparatico) among people originating from rural areas of Calabria, southern Italy, who migrated to Adelaide, South Australia, in the 1950s and 1960s. The study specifically investigates the transmission of norms and the widespread observance of duties associated with the practice of comparatico among participants. Social relations among allied famili…
