This course provides a critical analysis of families using a life course perspective. We will pay attention to historical transformations of families in society and to family transitions over the life course of individuals. This course emphasizes the linked lives of individuals to each other, to institutions such as work, and to their cultural contexts. The intersections between the family and other social institutions, as well as growing diversity between families will be central foundations of this course.
