Description: Families of a New World by Lisa Pollard, Lynne Haney Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Examines understandings of family around the world and how they are influenced by state policy. Demonstrates how governments have shaped the way families look and act and have regulated an approved ideal of the family to further their own agendas. Publisher Description From Prague to Tennessee to Brazil, its hard to find a consensus on what constitutes an average family. In todays world, the nuclear family is rarely the standard family structure, if it ever was. Families of a New World brings together an important collection of original works to examine our understanding of family around the world and how that understanding is shaped by state policy. Using examples from both historical and modern countries around the world, essays demonstrate not only how state policies shape what the family should look and act like, but also how governments have appropriated and regulated an approved ideal of the family to further their own agendas.
