Learning how relationships work
YP and relationship professionals recognised the importance of building YP's relational capability in schools with a healthy relationship with oneself at its foundation. Relationship professionals emphasised the need for a developmental approach, stressing the need for flexibility, adaptability, commitment and resilience to maintain relationships over the life course. YP often presented dichotomous views, such as relationships being either good o…
Reflections on Joint and Individual Interviews With Couples
When researchers are interested in the experiences of couples, the mode of interview is typically considered a binary choice between separate individual interviews with each partner, or a joint interview with both partners together. That is, if interview mode is explicitly considered at all. In this article, we illustrate a reflective process undertaken to explore the role of interview mode in the production of knowledge. Our focus is the adoptio…

Rising to the post-Laspo challenge
Whilst mediation remains the policy-makers’ Family Dispute Resolution process of choice and the only one directly supported by legal aid, it remains a process designed for low conflict private family law disputes. Post-LASPO, the policy aimed at encouraging more couples jointly to exercise their autonomy to mediate family disputes has had unintended consequences, with those eligible for legal aid attending the mandatory Mediation Information and …
The ‘child’s best interests’ as an argumentative resource in family mediation sessions
We used Discursive Psychology to study the claims and arguments which occur when ‘the child’s best interests’ is produced as a resource in family mediation settings. Analysis draws on data from three pairs of separated or separating parents attempting to resolve child contact or residency disputes through mediation. Our analysis focuses on the tendency of claims to the abstract notion of the child’s best interests to exacerbate conflict, especial…

Evaluation
This article considers matters relating to evaluation purpose, and the dissemination and use of findings. The author discusses some of the challenges occurring in a particular health services evaluation in New Zealand and proposes an acronym framework, based on the word ACCEPTANCE (accessibility, audience, criteria, credibility, credentials, communication, ethics, purpose, politics, participants, position, timeliness, tone, attitude, appearance, …
Regulating Marriage and Cohabitation in 21 st Century Britain
This article assesses the legal regulation of marriage and cohabitation in Britain and outlines a growing need and desire for the currently confused law to be amended despite what has been termed ‘the normal chaos of family law’. It adds to the topical debate about ‘couple regulation’ and argues that law should protect the function rather than the form of relationships. This argument is supported by recent Nuffield Foundation funded research, whi…
Regulating Marriage and Cohabitation
The inspiration for this special issue came from our observation that the British and American approaches to family policy in general, and to marriage and cohabitation in particular, set them apart from their closest neighbors in Europe and North America, respectively. While certain demographic trends can be observed across the Western world, the response of Britain and the United States to such trends differs significantly from that of other jur…
Regulation of Cohabitation, Changing Family Policies and Social Attitudes
This article considers the differing legal and policy responses to the common trends of family restructuring away from marriage within Britain and Europe. Conceding that Europe is in the process of losing heterosexual marriage as a universal epicenter of family law at the very time when legal harmonization within Europe is being promoted, it goes on to explore the best way forward for regulating same‐ and different‐sex cohabiting couples. It conc…

Supporting families? New Labour's communitarianism and the 'rationality mistake
New Labour is keen to use legislation to encourage what are seen as desirable family practices, and to discourage other, less-favoured, forms. What this means in policy terms has now been codified in its 1998 Green Paper, Supporting Families . In this paper, we examine the validity of this enterprise in terms of its underlying assumptions about social behaviour and economic decision making. We argue that the government implicitly assumes a univer…
New Labour’s communitarianism, supporting families and the ‘rationality mistake’
In Part I of this study, we argued that New Labour is keen to use legislation to promote what it sees as desirable family forms and to discourage other, less-favoured family practices. The codification of this approach in the 1998 Green Paper Supporting Families - and, in particular, the 'New Deal for Lone Parents' - was compared with recent empirical research on how people make decisions about their moral economies. We concluded that the governm…
The rent (Agriculture) Act 1976
The Rent (Agriculture) Act 1976 did not abolish the agricultural tied cottage system, but did remove automatic loss of accommodation on termination of employment by giving qualifying farmworkers Rent Act-style security of tenure. This was coupled with a mechanism guaranteeing them local authority accommodation if the farmer/landlord could show agricultural need for the tied dwelling. It failed to sever the nexus between employment and housing but…
