The family patterns seen in recent decades - cohabitation, divorce, non-marital childbearing, same-sex marriage and childrearing - can seem like radical changes from the past. But upon closer examination, many are consistent with broader trends that have been going on for centuries. This book considers this tension between change and continuity, situating families in a social, historical, and economic context, and emphasising how these contexts create family diversity and inequality.
