The emergence of alternative family forms are among the themes discussed in this book which surveys the controversies raised by changing family structures in Western society. Critiques of the traditional, conjugal family and the development of alternative family life-styles as in cohabitation, same-sex pairings, and experiments in group living are discussed. The contradictory tendencies of developments in family structures in the past twenty-five years are analysed. |
