Description

Explore how the Australian family has transformed across centuries in this comprehensive historical analysis from Routledge. From the household economies of the late nineteenth century through the child-centred nuclear family of the mid-twentieth century to today's diverse family structures, this book examines the profound shifts that have reshaped society. Divorce, women entering the workforce, de facto relationships, and sexual liberation movements have fundamentally altered our understanding of family life. Once considered a natural, unchanging institution, the family is now a topic of constant discussion and debate. This engaging study traces the social, economic, and cultural forces that have made and remade the Australian family, offering readers insight into how historical change has affected one of society's most fundamental units and why contemporary families look so different from their predecessors.
