The main aim of this report is to investigate and analyse the opinions of different generations of family members living in extended families, and their views on trans- generation relationships. The three main questions for analysing this family model are: What are the possible reasons behind the choice to live in an extended family; how do relationships develop and progress; what type, if any conflicts exist when living in an extended family? This research is based on two main methods, analyses of literature (studies on the subject) and field interviews. The hypothesis of the report is as follows: 1. Extended family creation is due to the different economic, social and psychological conditions which can occur at any stage of family existence. 2. Intergenerational relations in extended family are formed on the principle of cooperation, which leads to a failure to dissent or even conflicts.
