This timely volume explores the impact of dramatic social change
that has disrupted established patterns of family life and human
development in the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council. It
addresses several major deficits in knowledge regarding family
issues in the Gulf countries, bringing a critical perspective to
the emerging challenges facing families in this region. Lansford,
Ben Brik, and Badahdah examine the role of urbanization,
educational progress, emigration, globalization, and changes in the
status of women on social change, as well as tackling issues
related to marriage, fertility and parenthood, and family
well-being. This book explores how family relationships and social
policies can promote physical health, psychological well-being,
social relationships, safety, cognitive development, and economic
security in the Gulf countries, placing a unique emphasis on
contemporary families in this region. Families and Social Change in
the Gulf Region is essential reading for scholars from psychology,
sociology, education, law, and public policy. It will also be of
interest to graduate students in these disciplines.
