'Der Beitrag versucht, den Stand der familiensoziologischen Theoriebildung zu bestimmen. Dazu werden zunächst die wichtigsten theoretischen Ansätze benannt, die für die Familienforschung der letzten Dekaden in Deutschland relevant waren, gefolgt von einer Darstellung der wichtigsten theoretischen Grundprobleme und Diskussionsfelder, zunächst das Außenverhältnis der Familie betreffend, dann die Binnenstruktur. Ein Ergebnis ist, dass sich eine Reihe von Forschungsfeldern aus der Familiensoziologie ausgelagert haben, so dass es nicht nur eine Reihe von Defiziten zu vermelden gibt, sondern dass es auch zunehmend schwierig erscheint, eine einheitliche Theorie der Familie zu konstruieren. Dies wäre aber gerade angesichts der Herausforderung durch die Erfolge der Bio-Wissenschaften dringend notwendig.' (Autorenreferat)... view less

'This paper tries to ascertain the state of the art in family theory and to identify the discussions and topics which contributed to progress in the field. For this purpose, the most influential approaches in German family sociology are discussed, followed by two sections focusing on the relationship between family and society, and the internal structure of the family, respectively. One result is that the problems of theoretical integration are increasing because some of the research fields that were formerly part of family sociology now have abandoned the field. An integrated theory of the family, however, seems to be an important issue for the future when regarding the challenge of family research by the success of biology and life-sciences.'
