Currently, in its fifth release, Canadian Households Nowadays unites contributions from top researchers in Canada to deliver a contemporary and inclusive introduction to the sociology of the family. The first part commences with a historical and theoretical insight into Canadian families and family life, highlighting the continued variety of family structures. The second part then delves into common transitions occurring in families across the life span, from family establishment through to later years. In the third part, the text examines various aspects of family life (such as traditions, compensated and unpaid labor, and poverty), along with specific challenges encountered by immigrant and refugee families, Indigenous families, and families with disabilities. Finally, the fourth part wraps up with a discussion on family violence, family policies in Canada, and projections on the future of the Canadian family. This fresh edition encompasses fully revised sections on LGBTQI families, parenting, separation and divorce, immigrant and refugee families, alongside a revamped box program and comprehensive updates to data and content throughout.
