The article looks at the social roles of the sibling and the sibling-inlaw among older adults and how these roles are interconnected. It is based on an analysis of data collected in Czechia in 2017–2019 from 91 qualitative interviews and three focus groups with participants aged 50+. The concept of social roles used here considers a plurality of role repertoires, which actors can choose from, combine, and variously emphasise. Focusing on the social roles of the sibling and the sibling-in-law shows how each of these roles is specific. Both of these roles have a repertoire of targeted support for sibling/ kin cohesiveness and a repertoire of common solidarity and sociability. The sibling‘s role also includes repertoires of intimate closeness and emergency assistance. Both roles can be performed as a minimalist repertoire. The repertoire of the sibling-in-law role is defined in relation to the role of the sibling/ the life partner; the minimum expectation of a sibling is to not avoid contact with others and to show an interest in his/her sibling. Both roles are based on mutual autonomy and at the same time a willingness to maintain the sibling / kin relationship. How the two roles interfere and interact with each other is clear and provides insight into other dimensions of both roles. While it is possible to remain with the minimalist repertoire, it can generally be said that the role of a sibling and the role of a sibling-in-law acquire increasing importance as people grow older.

The article focuses on siblinghood-in-law – a dimension of siblinghood revealed in qualitative research on siblinghood at age 50 and over, based on individual interviews and focus groups, realised in the Czech Republic. It introduces the interconnectedness between siblinghood and siblinghood-in-law, and pays particular attention to old age. A sibling-inlaw relationship is created in the context of a more complex relationality (where conjugal construction of reality plays an important role); in addition to the dyadic relationship of two siblings-in-law, or a triadic relationship mediated by the linchpin person, the siblingin-law relation to his/her siblings-in-law (even as individuals) may be primarily defined as a sibling-in-law relationship to a sibling group (generating itself its own definition of reality), possibly even to a larger kin. Late-life situations create a context to possibly intensify relations between the “remaining” siblings and siblings-in-law. The article concludes with a typology of sibling-in-law relationship patterns.

Artykuł zajmuje się szwagrostwem – wymiarem rodzeństwa ujawnionym w jakościowych badaniach nad rodzeństwem w wieku 50 lat i późniejszym, opartych na indywidualnych wywiadach i grupach fokusowych, zrealizowanych w Czechach. Relacje szwagierskie wytwarzają się w kontekście bardziej złożonej relacyjności (gdzie ważną rolę odgrywa małżeńska konstrukcja rzeczywistości). Relacje szwagierskie, oprócz bezpośredniej dwojga szwagrostwa lub pośredniej przez osobę pokrewną, obejmują także relacje szwagrów/szwagierek do ogółu rodzeństwa, a być może nawet do szerzej pojętego pokrewieństwa. Sytuacje z późnego etapu życia – śmierć rodziców, partnerów i rodzeństwa, nieobecność dzieci w domu – tworzą kontekst, który może zintensyfikować relacje między „pozostałym” rodzeństwem a szwagrostwem. Na końcu przedstawiona jest typologia wzorów relacyjnych między szwagrami bądź z udziałem szwagrów.
