Resource summary
Modernity and Family Diversity
Based on changes brought about by modern, industrial society
Marriage and Nuclear family central, but increasingly instability develops
Giddens
Marriage became based on romantic love rather than economics in 18th sentury
Late modernity
sex can be for pleasure and relationships and marriage no longer seen as perminant
Marriage now based on confluent love
couples no longer stay together if relationship is not beneficial to both
Divorce and relationship breakdown become common
Tradition and societal norms no longer tie people together
People focussing on improving their own lives
relationships in modern world
Beck and Beck-Gersheim
Individualisation characteristic of modern life
more opportunities for individuals
esp. women
people seek emotional security from family
as little security or intimacy in workplace
No accepted formula about relationships
so we have to work out own solutions
conflict results from increased choice and uncertainly and from pressures of work life
Increased uncertainty leads to chaotic personal relationships
Would explain increase in divorce
