Vulnerabilities, Care and Family Law

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Family life is now recognised as a potential site of vulnerabilities, where care work can go unacknowledged, and be a source of social and economic hardship. Vulnerabilities, Care and Family Law addresses the strong relationships that exist between vulnerability, care and dependency in particular contexts, where family law and social policy have a contribution to make. The first book of its kind to provide an intersectional approach to this subject, this title will be of interest to anyone concerned with how developments in social policy and family law might improve the lives of already exposed and fragile families.
