1. The Functionalist View of Family

• “Families” evolve to serve social functions• The definition of “family” will change as the

needs of the larger society changes• Contrary to some criticisms, the functionalist

perspective is not inherently conservative as it accepts that society can accommodate new family forms

2. The Family Ecology Perspective

• “Families” are the smallest in a set of nested spheres that define human social ecology

• Families are influenced by and impact on the rest of those spheres

• The other spheres are the built environment, the social environment, and the natural environment

• The ecological perspective emphasizes practical work to better the various aspects of the family’s environment.

3. The Developmental Perspective

• Families, like individuals, have a “life cycle”• Stages are defined by:– The addition or subtraction of members– The stages of life of the family’s children– Changes in the members’ attachment to social

institutions, like school or work

4. Conflict and Feminist Perspectives

• Conflict and feminist perspectives seek to confront and end oppression, particularly oppression of women, in families and family-related policies

• These goals include changing policies that harm female-led households, fighting domestic violence, recognizing the validity of unpaid labour, and pushing for legal recognition of same-sex couples.

• Like the ecological perspective, this perspective is emphatic about performing real advocacy, not only academic theorizing.
