Family Law and the Indissolubility of Parenthood Book / Patrick Parkinson
[9781107614338]

$49.95
Products Qty: 1

There are few areas of public policy in the Western world where there is as much turbulence as in family law. Often the disputes are seen in terms of an endless war between the genders. Reviewing developments over the last 30 years in North America, Europe and Australasia, Patrick Parkinson argues that, rather than just being about gender, the conflicts in family law derive from the breakdown of the model on which divorce reform was predicated in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Experience has shown that although marriage may be freely dissoluble, parenthood is not. Dealing with the most difficult issues in family law, this book charts a path for law reform that recognizes that the family endures despite the separation of parents, while allowing room for people to make a fresh start and prioritizing the safety of all concerned when making decisions about parenting after separation.

  • Offers a major contribution to the debates about the future of family law in the Western world
  • Reviews and compares the experience of many different countries and shows how they are grappling with the same problems and how solutions are converging
  • Offers proposals for resolving the major conflicts in family law which rise above the gender war to offer another way forward
