This open access handbook provides a multilevel view on family
policies, combining insights on family policy outcomes at different
levels of policymaking: supra-national organizations, national
states, sub-national or regional levels, and finally smaller
organizations and employers. At each of these levels, a
multidisciplinary group of expert scholars assess policies and
their implementation, such as child income support, childcare
services, parental leave, and leave to provide care to frail and
elderly family members. The chapters evaluate their impact in
improving children's development and equal opportunities, promoting
gender equality, regulating fertility, productivity and economic
inequality, and take an intersectional perspective related to
gender, class, and family diversity. The editors conclude by
presenting a new research agenda based on five major challenges
pertaining to the levels of policy implementation (in particular
globalization and decentralization), austerity and marketization,
inequality, changing family relations, and welfare states adapting
to women's empowered roles.
