Abstract

This sourcebook is an unparalleled resource in the field of family science. It provides a comprehensive overview of both traditional and contemporary theories and methodologies to promote a greater understanding of increasingly complex family realities. It focuses on broad developments in research design and conceptualization, while also offering a historical perspective on developments in family science over time, particularly emerging theories from the past several decades. Each chapter summarizes and evaluates a major theory or methodological approach in the field, delving into its main principles; its debates and challenges; how it has evolved over time; its practical uses in policy, education, or further research; and links to other theories and methodologies. In highlighting recent research of note, chapters emphasize the potential for innovative future applications. Key areas of coverage include: · Risk and resilience, family stress, feminist, critical race, and social exchange theories. · Ambiguous loss, intersectionality, Queer, and family development theory. · Life course framework. · Biosocial theory and biomarker methods. · Symbolic interactionism. · Ethnography. · Mixed methods, participatory action research, and evaluation.

Abstract

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.
