The paper seeks to develop the discussion of informal care in the community stimulated by feminist analyses in social policy of what has been called 'the moral politics of caring'. In particular the paper enquires into the relationship between family structures and the 'political styles' through which families bargain about caring issues. A selection of studies dealing with family structure and decision-making are discussed. The paper closes by making some observations about the potential development of family therapy strategies, particularly by social workers trying to ensure the co-operation and involvement of family members, friends and neighbors in caring responsibilities within the new community care framework
