While the family and its role continues to be a key topic in social and government policy, much of the literature is concerned with describing the dramatic changes that are taking place.

Topics covered include:* the relationship between morality and rationality in the family context* the variety of contemporary family forms* the purposes and assumptions of government interventions in family life* the relationship between different welfare states and different ideas about motherhood* ''Third Way'' thinking on families* divorce and post-divorce arrangements* lone parenthood and step-parenting* the decision to have children* the economic approach to understanding family process* the legitimacy of state intervention in family life.With contributions from the UK, and North America,Analysing Familiesprovides the framework within which to understand an increasingly important element in social policy.
