In diesem Lehr- und Studienbuch werden die vielfältigsten familiensoziologischen Themen behandelt: familialer Wandel, Familie und Kinderbetreuungsinstitutionen, die Wechselwirkungen zwischen Familie und Schule sowie Arbeitswelt, die familialen Auswirkungen der gestiegenen regionalen Mobilität und der Entwicklung der digitalen Medien, das Problem der Ehescheidung, die Transferleistungen innerhalb der Mehrgenerationenfamilie, die gesamtgesellschaftliche Bedeutung von Verwandtschaft und Vererbungspraktiken, die Auswirkungen von Armut und Gewalt, aber auch von familienpolitischen Maßnahmen sowie der Kinder- und Jugendhilfe. Darüber hinaus wird die Zukunftsperspektive von Familie thematisiert. Der Band präsentiert die diesbezüglichen aktuellsten empirischen Forschungsergebnisse und zeigt die noch offenen Fragen und Forschungslücken auf. In allen Kapiteln werden vor allem die durch den abgelaufenen Modernisierungs- und Differenzierungsprozess entstandenen Veränderungen, Probleme, Spannungen und Konflikte analysiert. Insofern stehen die einzelnen Beiträge - verfasst von renommierten Soziologen bzw. Soziologinnen an deutschen und ausländischen Universitäten - nicht additiv nebeneinander, sondern diese Perspektive bildet die konzeptionelle Rahmung des Buches.
