Abstract
Based on individual case studies and employing discourse analysis in Carniola, this study endeavours to transcend the existing theories that predominantly place the rural elderly within multigenerational familial structures. By delving into the intricacies of property transfer, the employment possibilities of individuals lacking assets, marital strategies, obstacles and dynamics, and the provision of care for elderly family members in rural areas, a nuanced understanding emerges. The present research reveals diverse strategies, identities, and configurations in the lifestyles and livelihoods of the rural elderly, which extend beyond conventional family-centric perspectives. By emphasising the intricate interplay of property dynamics, survival strategies, and communal solidarity, this article sheds light on the multifaceted life of the elderly in the countryside.
