American families are far more diverse and complex today than they
were 50 years ago. As ideas about marriage, divorce, and remarriage
have changed, so too have our understandings about cohabitation,
childbearing, parenting, and the transition to adulthood. Americans
of all socioeconomic backgrounds have witnessed changes in the
nature of family life, but as this book reveals, these changes play
out in very different ways for the wealthy or well off than they do
for the poor.
"Social Class and Changing Families in an Unequal America" offers
an up-to-the-moment assessment of the condition of the family in an
era of growing inequality. Highlighting unique aspects of family
behavior, it reveals the degree to which families' varying
experiences are shaped by social class. This book offers a much
needed assessment of contemporary family life amid the turbulent
economic changes in the United States.
