Biografisk notat
Hantrias, Linda; Letabiler, Marie-Therese
The family is currently a controversial topic both within the UK and Europe. While demographic trends seem to suggest that family structures and attitudes within the European Union are converging and that member states are facing similar social problems, their policy responses are very different. This book examines the differences between these national responses and that of the EU as contained in the social chapter. It analyses the key concepts underlying the formulation of family policy and illustrates it with the latest data much of it hitherto unpublished.

Explores how family structures, employment relationship and family policy are conceptualised in individual EC member states. Draws upon material from ESRC, CNAF (Paris) and the European Commission DGV.
