Family justice requires not only a legal framework within which
personal obligations are regulated over the life course, but also a
justice system which can deliver legal information, advice and
support at times of change of status or family stress, together
with mechanisms for negotiation, dispute management and resolution,
with adjudication as the last resort. The past few years have seen
unparalleled turbulence in the way family justice systems function.
These changes are associated with economic constraints in many
countries, including England and Wales, where legal aid for private
family matters has largely disappeared. But there is also a change
in ideology in a number of jurisdictions, including Canada, towards
what is sometimes called neo-liberalism, whereby the state seeks to
reduce its area of activity while at the same time maintaining
strong views on family values. Legal services may become fragmented
and marketised, and the role of law and lawyers reduced, while
self-help web based services expand. The contributors to this
volume share their anxieties about the impact on the ability of
individuals to achieve fair and informed resolution in family
matters.
