- W4313011692 abstract "Abstract This chapter examines the experience of older men—elders—in southeastern Nigeria, focusing especially on the centrality of circular migration for men’s actual or anticipated retirement. The chapter also juxtaposes men’s worries about disrespect for seniority with the virtual arms race that has evolved around funerals. These end-of-life rituals now include expectations for lavish ceremonies involving extreme amounts of conspicuous consumption and redistribution that often strain families and kin-groups, creating both financial hardship and social disharmony. Presenting a few detailed examples, the chapter argues that both the perception of diminished respect for elders and the escalating expectations around burials exemplify the challenges of social changes in Nigeria for men. The twin aspirations of performing the duties of kinship and exhibiting success in the arenas of wealth, consumption, and social class make men deeply anxious and ambivalent about behaviors they nonetheless feel utterly incapable of avoiding." @default.
