Description

The Handbook examines contemporary trends and issues in the formation of families over the different stages of the life cycle and how they interact with family-oriented social policies of modern welfare states, mainly in the OECD countries of Western Europe, East Asia and the U.S. Focusing largely on family needs in the early stages of the life course, the conventional package of policies tends to emphasize programs and benefits clustered around measures to support marriage, childbearing, care, the reconciliation of employment and childcare during the preschool years. Drawing on a multidisciplinary group of experts from many countries, this book extends the conventional perspective on family policy by also looking at later phases of the family life course. In taking a life course perspective, this Handbook extends the purview to encompass five main stages of family life. These are (1) cohabitation; (2) marriage and starting a family; (3) the early years of parenting, care and employment; (4) the period of transitions and later life, not only the empty nest, but also adversities that lead to family breakdown; and (5) aging and intergenerational supports.
