The 'Irish' Family is an innovative new text, which both aims to fill a substantial gap in the market for course material on Ireland and to contribute to wider debates about 'the family' in the arena of family studies and research. The collection will address a range of important topics within a number of disciplines, including sociology, social policy, history, women's studies, Irish studies and politics. It is unique in that it will be the first integrated 'Sociology of the Family' text in relation to Ireland.
