In this introduction to family studies, Jon Bernardes argues that
variation and diversity are increasingly the hallmarks of family
structure particularly in Europe and the United States. The book
provides a comprehensive account of how families work both
internally and in relation to society through the labor market and
also through social institutions like education and the law. The
chapters are designed to work as individual units of study in a
course on the family. Each chapter highlights key issues,
summarises the most relevant research in the area, suggests
activities as a basis for student projects and discussion, and
recommends further reading. Above all, this very positive approach
to a changing social form encourages students to find out for
themselves what the family, in all its richness and complexity,
looks like as we enter the twenty first century.
