Description
This interdisciplinary study provides an analysis of the complex changes in family relations in a society undergoing revolutionary social and economic transformation.
It explores the patterns and causes of change in education, work, income, leisure time, marriage, living arrangements and interactions among extended kin.
Theoretical chapters enunciate a theory of family and social change centred on the life course and modes of social organization.
Other chapters look at the shift from arranged marriages toward love matches, as well as changes in dating practices, premarital sex, fertility and divorce.
