Resentment in the Family: Considerations of an Empirical Pilot Study

Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to outline and explain the phenomenon of resentment learned and occurring within the family, the primary medium of socialization, from an anthropological perspective. The ongoing pilot project explores the socio-cultural patterns of this phenomenon in an educated urban middle-class sample of contemporary Hungary. Inspired also by intercultural comparative studies, our non-representative research is based on forty semi-structured interviews (twenty-seven of which are already realized). The analysis of personal narratives targets the communication practices and strategies of subsequent generations within the socio-cultural contexts of families. It employs the Bourdieusian notion of habitus as a flexible conceptual tool containing unconscious and not necessarily rational elements to tease apart family behaviour labelled as resentment.
