"Wie und in welchen Bereichen hat sich in den letzten 10 Jahren unser Wissen von familialen Strukturen und Dynamiken sowie den Ursachen ihres Wandels verbessert? Wo liegen die inhaltlichen Schwerpunkte der Forschung und welche Fragestellungen werden vernachlässigt? Welche Methoden werden in der empirischen Familienforschung verwendet, und welche Daten stehen zur Verfügung? Der Beitrag resümiert den Diskussions- und Forschungsstand zu diesen Fragen in der deutschen Familiensoziologie unter Bezugnahme auf die internationale Literatur. Neben einer Bestandsaufnahme der Forschungsschwerpunkte in den letzten 10 Jahren und einem Überblick über verfügbare Daten und Methoden fokussieren die Autoren auf die Identifikation von aktuellen inhaltlichen Forschungslücken und methodischen Defiziten. Es werden in drei Thesen Forderungen an die aktuelle sozialwissenschaftliche Familienforschung formuliert: Eine zeitgemäße, sozialpolitisch relevante familiensoziologische Forschung muss 1) neben strukturellen Faktoren stärker subjektive, kulturelle und soziale Einflussfaktoren familialen Wandels berücksichtigen; 2) mehr belastbares Wissen über die Leistungen und die Leistungsfähigkeit der Familie in unserer Gegenwartsgesellschaft gewinnen; und 3) sich stärker in angrenzende Forschungsbereiche einmischen, u.a. Bildung, Ungleichheit und Migration." (Autorenreferat)... view less

"How and in which areas did our knowledge of family structures, family dynamics and the determinants of family change improve in the past decade? Which substantive areas receive most attention and which questions are underresearched? Which methods are commonly applied in empirical family research and what can we say about data availability? This article reviews the current discussion and recent research on these questions in German family sociology in the context of the international literature. Next to a review of the substantive research foci in the past decade and an overview of available data and methods, we focus on identifying current substantive research gaps and methodological deficits. We formulate three requests for current family research in the social sciences: a timely family sociology that is relevant for social policy has to 1) pay more attention to subjective, cultural and social influences on family change beyond its structural determinants; 2) generate more knowledge on the contributions and capabilities of families in our contemporary society; and 3) intervene more forcefully into adjacent research areas including education, stratification and migration."
