Book excerpt: The Fertility and Family Surveys (FFS) project was initiated by the Population Activities Unit (PAU) of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe in the late 1980s. Its principal objective is to conduct a long-term sample survey research programme focusing on fertility and family change. The aim is to document and understand various aspects of contemporary partnership and reproductive behaviour in industrialised countries. Results of analyses based on the FFS data for the various countries are presented in the Standard Country Reports. This is the first comprehensive survey of fertility and family in Lithuania. Since the early 1990s, the country has experienced striking demographic changes. The number of marriages has declined, but the number of consensual unions has increased, but birth rates have fallen. Meanwhile there has been an increase in emigration. This fertility and family survey examines the economic, social and population trends.

Book excerpt: While the family and its role continues to be a key topic in social and government policy, much of the literature is concerned with describing the dramatic changes that are taking place. By contrast, Analysing Families directly addresses the social processes responsible for these changes - how social policy interacts with what families actually do. Topics covered include: * the relationship between morality and rationality in the family context * the variety of contemporary family forms * the purposes and assumptions of government interventions in family life * the relationship between different welfare states and different ideas about motherhood * 'Third Way' thinking on families * divorce and post-divorce arrangements * lone parenthood and step-parenting * the decision to have children * the economic approach to understanding family process * the legitimacy of state intervention in family life. With contributions from the UK, and North America, Analysing Families provides the framework within which to understand an increasingly important element in social policy.
