Legal rules play an important role in recognising, protecting, and supporting the family. As the notion of a ‘family’ is constantly changing, the law sometimes lags behind and fails to afford recognition, protection, or support to the diverse forms of the family present in society. So too, the law sometimes fails to afford proper recognition to the diverse functions a family fulfils. The rise in step-families, parenthood outside marriage and the use of assisted reproduction, including surrogacy, have re-shaped the notion of ‘family’ and the issue of how many parents a child can legally have. The functions of the family have, likewise, changed inter alia because of women’s increased participation in paid labour, greater emphasis on personal responsibility for one’s own financial welfare, and the movement away from the welfare state in some jurisdictions. The book seeks to ascertain whether and, if so, how family law recognises multiple parents in the various family forms that occur in modern society. The book also investigates which functions of the family the law recognises and whether the presence of children changes the recognition that is afforded to these functions. Diversity and plurality are widely discussed in the contemporary human rights debate, in very different contexts. This book provides a better understanding of those two concepts, analyzing the legal systems of 23 countries – across Africa, Asia and Europe – and of two regional human rights systems (the European and Inter-American systems). |
