Family Matters.
Featherstone, Joseph
Harvard Educational Review, v49 n1 p20-52 Feb 1979
Emphasizing the family as the center of political/policy debates is the result of the tradition of romanticizing family virtues and a set of events ("the sixities"). Author sees the family emerging as a symbol in communal social policy development. Warns of dangers inherent in seeking private solutions to collective problems. (Author/CSS)
