| Summary: | The family institution is undergoing a radical transformation whereby all the constituent relations of its modern structure are being challenged. A classical exercise of family sociology, this book draws upon a wide range of disciplines: history, anthropology, psychoanalysis, and demography. Anybody concerned with the future of the family will find interest in this book. Originally published by Les Presses de l'Université Laval as La fin de la famille moderne, this book was awarded the Prix Jean-Charles Falardeau for the best book published in French in Canada in the field of social sciences (2000-01).
