title: [Generation, household type, and income:  trends in Flanders between 1976 and 1985].
abstract: "During the period 1970-1985 a general deterioration of the income positions of the younger generations and a marked improvement of the economic position of the elderly has been documented for the U.S. and the U.K.  This article shows that the same trend also appeared in Flanders.  The causes of these new trends in poverty and/or insecurity are analysed, including the effects of new forms of household formation and dissolution." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND FRE)
