Shaping Tomorrows Family Theory and Policy for the Twenty-First Century: Theory and Policy for the 21st Century (Sage Library of Social Research) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

The conventional structure of the family is changing. Scanzoni develops a new model of the family, one that avoids sexual inequality and pays increased attention to the needs of individual family members, particularly children. Above all, it is dynamic, changing as society changes. Scanzoni reviews the history of the conventional family, the responses to current changes, the benefits of his new model, and the problems of establishing it as a living alternative.

`While this is a book to be read by anyone interested in the future of the family, it will be particularly helpful for those who are teaching about the family, doing family research, or engaged in setting up a better environment for the family.' -- Family Relation
