Reasons for changing family size, roles and relationships
  1. INDUSTRIALISATION PROCESS economic change from agriculture to industry
    1. Parsons 'theory of fit', from extended nuclear to isolated nuclear. Based on structural differentiation, NO evidence,pure argument. Unit of production to a unit of consumption.
      1. Laslett criticises Parsons, claims only 10% of families were extended before, based on research
        1. Anderson criticises Parsons, in early industrialisation EF was common for support, 23% extended in this time period
          1. Litwak says extended family remains important, even members who live far away keep in regular contact via phone or social networks, this is a modified extended family
            1. structural differentiation (transfer of responsibility family to state in Parsons theory): social and geographical mobility.Families find it easier to move up/down social hierarchy. Family must be smaller to get up and move,
          2. DEVELOPMENT OF HOUSEWIFE ROLE caused by industrialisation
            1. women gradually excluded from labour force and confined to home at start of industrialisation, responsible for housework and childcare
              1. males became breadwinners
                1. Parsons: TNF segregated conjugal roles (separate) husband instrumental, provides financially for family, female expressive, meets family emotional needs and includes primary socialisation
                  1. criticised by Willmott and Young,male take on more DDOL, more women in paid work (1962)
                2. enforced female subordination and economic dependence on men, socially constructed role rather than natural as Parsons claims (feminist view) it only benefits men
                  1. Willmott and Young: identify a pattern of segregated conjugal roles in working class extended families (Bethnal Green 1950)
                    1. they take 'march of progress' view, family life gradually improve, becoming more equal/democratic, these trends created symmetrical family.
                      1. symmetrical family usually nuclear, not extended. Privatised and based on joint conjugal roles. 72% husbands help in the house.
                        1. symmetrical family increase due to: change in women's position, geographical mobility, tech. and labour saving devices and higher standard of living
                        2. Oakley (feminist) disagree that family is symmetrical. Her study shows dual burden of women. Only 15% male high level housework, 25% high level childcare. Subjective so invalid, the survey was small and only carried out in one area of london.
                          1. supported disagreement later by 2000 future foundation study, 60% men more housework than father, 75% women less housework than mother. However women still do more
                      2. Hochschild notes women more likely perform jobs involving emotional labour. Duncombe and Marsden argue women carry out a triple shift. Housework, paid work & emotion work.
                        1. Gershuny: women work full-time do less domestic work than those who don't, led to more equal DDOL, different domestic tasks male DIY, gardening. conjugal roles more equal, men adapt to society changes slower than women, this is lagged adaptation
                          1. Dunne: studied 37 lesbian cohabiting couples, more symmetry as tasks can't be linked to gender scripts, Lesbian couples have more equal relationship. If one works more DDOL becomes unequal - paid work influence DDOL in heterosexual and homosexual.
                            1. supports radical feminist view, inevitable patriarchy, only equal for women in same sex relationship.
                          2. highest earner makes majority financial decisions
                            1. Pahl&Vogler: pooling bank account increase as both partners likely work full time. allowance system, male gives female money to spend on family needs
                              1. Edgell: men make money/housemoving decision in general, women clothes/food, joint on education/childs needs
                        2. CHANGING ROLE OF CHILDREN
                          1. before industrialisation children economic asset, now economic burden due to changing laws post-industrialisation, this is why people now have less children. Society become more child centered
                          2. INCREASING ROLE OF STATE
                            1. law prevent women/children working increasing strain on the breadwinner and increasing patriarchy, less family income. Improved water supply/sewage disposal lower IMR less children and increases life expectancy.
                              1. sickness benefit 1911, improve living standard and attempt protect families poverty, Beveridge Report 1944, introduce welfare state education&benefits improve, NHS 1948, loss of functions of the family (structural differentiation)
                                1. child benefit paid direct to mother, support housewife role, women primary carer. Care homes for elderly/vulnerable children lower death rates and IMR, reduces emotion work
                                2. MODERN TO POSTMODERN
                                  1. people used to look out for each other more, now more selfish society. religion used to be important in shaping attitudes (social control method) now secularisation causes increasing family diversity
                                    1. nuclear family used to be norm, stable family structures, now family diversity promotes risk and instability. previously low divorce rate trad. values and religious influence now we live in a risk society (Beck) individualism.
                                      1. in the past more empty shell marriages now increased divorce rates - choice
