Individualism and Families
Almost all women and men claim that gender equality within their relationships is the ideal. In practice, however, equality is not predominant within many couples and families. This book develops current debates about individualisation within families – particularly how partners understand and resolve tensions between the need for togetherness and personal autonomy, and how partners view and work with increasing gender equality. Individualism and…

Social Policy Reforms in Sweden
In the Swedish Social Democratic welfare state the state has a strong position with social insurances built on universalistic principles with a maximum of decommodification effects (Esping-Andersen 1990). The most distinguished trait of this regime type is its fusion of welfare and work. A so-called Work Strategy has always been an important element within the social insurance system, to the effect that insurances should be regarded in a context …
Social Relationships and Trust in Asylum Seeking Families in Sweden
Research has suggested that social networks are important resources for children as well as for adults to resist health problems. For asylum seeking children social networking might be hard to accomplish due to constraints linked to social and legal contexts in the host country. Constraints can also be linked to the family situation and the circumstances they have to cope with in everyday life. The situation of parents, in particular mothers, is …

Financial and Practical Kin Support in Sweden
In Sweden de-familialization is since several decades an established policy in the sense that the state has acquired a significant responsibility for the welfare of individuals, independent of the family he/she belongs to. In debates concerning the relations between support from the welfare state and the family one recurring statement is that in taking over the family responsibility, the state has contributed to the weakening of support between f…
The Roles of the Family and the Welfare State
Swedish family policies are integrated within a general welfare policy where the state has acquired a significant responsibility for the welfare of individuals, independent of family membership. A common assumption is that the state has contributed to weakening the sense of personal and family responsibility in Swedish families. In this article, the interrelationship between public and private financial support is investigated as are some dimensi…
Paying for the Costs of Children in Eight North European Countries
The book explores the implications of changes to the welfare state for children in a range of countries. Children, Changing Families and Welfare States: examines the implications of social policies for children; sets the discussion in the broader context of both family change and welfare state change, exploring the nature of the policy debate that has allowed the welfare of the child to come to the fore; tackles policies to do with both the care …
Making Agreements and Managing Conflicts
In order to practise equality, individuals have to strike a balance between the articulation of their individual selves and their norms and moral concerns about mutuality. Strategies for balancing mutuality and autonomy in relationships are vital parts of the process of accomplishing equality. Styles of negotiation and conflict management are involved in the process. This article discusses how styles of conflict management maintain inequality or …
Ideology and choice between work and care
The article examines the goals and ideologies of Swedish arrangements for parental leave and public child care for working parents. Two important goals are gender equality in work, and gender equality in family life and child welfare. It is argued that gender equality has been advanced to some extent as women have been able to integrate paid work into their lives. The choice of taking parental leave is, however, more conditional for men, and it i…
Cohabitation and Marriage in Sweden-Does Family form Matter
The growth of cohabitation as a basis for family form is related to changes in the role of marriage as an institution in Sweden. Cohabitation as a family form is however heterogeneous, depending on family histories of the cohabiting partners. For women, cohabitation has special implications both in terms of economic support and in terms of stability of the family and in the labour market. In the article I discuss how and if these phenomena are re…
Familj mellan marknad och stat/politik. En fråga om kön, klass och makt
The family between market and state. A question of gender, class an powerWith reference to the far-reaching social and economic changes from a global perspective, the focus of the political discussions is now laid on the conditions of family life. The family is a third sphere between the market and the state. As such, it cannot be analysed independently of changes on the labour market and in the political economy. In this article, the thesis is a…

Family policies in the EC-countries from a female perspectiveThe purpose of this article is to problematize the family policies in the EC-countries from a female perspective. The article emphasizes the family policies as motherhood policies in the twelve EC-countries. In my examples, I have focussed particularly on the phase of childbirth and the care for small children in the family cycle. My interest is to analyze the implication of the family …
