Language: English

Session Type: Oral


Demographic transition and social changes in the status of women brought about changes in family structures. Survival, both of infants and children and at old age, created the possibility of multi-generational households and inter-generation relations. The change in women's status, mainly economic relative independence, some argue, contributed to the increase in single parent families. In this session we will discuss current developments in family structures.
