The Family in Modern Germany
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-25313-1 (ISBN)
Beginning with an overview of the 19th-century family, each chapter goes on to examine changes in family type, size and structure across the different decades of the 20th century, with a focus on the relationship between the family and the state, as well as the impact of family policies and laws on the German family. Lisa Pine and her expert team of contributors draw on a wealth of primary sources, including legal documents, diaries, letters and interviews, and the most up-to-date secondary literature to shed new light on the continuities and changes in the history of the family in modern and contemporary Germany.
This book is a fantastic resource for scholars, postgraduates and advanced undergraduates studying modern German history, sociology and social policy.
