Bringing together current research from a diverse range of
jurisdictions on family law, the Research Handbook on Family
Justice Systems addresses the aims and boundaries of family justice
systems. Delineating the common purpose of family law to achieve
fairness for groups of people who live or have lived together, this
Handbook is concerned with the rules referred to as ‘family
law’, but also with the institutions comprising the operating
system. This Handbook presents the view that a Family Justice
System (FJS) is a living entity, working with and for a wide range
of beliefs and practices, comprising far more than a set of rules
and regulations, which can respond to a changing society, while
also contributing to that change. Looking specifically at the FJS
as an important and evolving element in the organisation of a
society, with which sociologists, as well as lawyers and family
sociologists are concerned, it explores how an FJS works in
practice, what it tries to do and why. With contributions from the
US, UK, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, France, Poland, Japan
and China, this Research Handbook is an internationally relevant
and comprehensive work. The Research Handbook on Family Justice
Systems examines FJS in practice, making it highly pertinent to
researchers, academics, practitioners, government lawyers,
policymakers and government administrators in the fields of
sociology and law with a special interest in family law and the
FJS.
