Book Review: The European Family. The Family Question in the European Community

Locating the place of families in developing European integration is a difficult enterprise. Family forms and the nature of family relationships are so dependent upon diverse and multiple cultural and historical influences, that labelling them as ‘European’ because of the existence of a political union seems spurious. This collection, by a number of European and other scholars of the family is an attempt, however, to complete that difficult exercise. The editors identify their project clearly: ‘This book aims to answer two questions, namely "Does the European family exist? Does European family policy exist?"’. 1 In arriving at tentative answers to these questions, they have gathered contributions from scholars representing seven of the member states of the EU as well as five from outside the EU.
