Description: |
Explores the concept of responsibility in family life, law and practice. This work examines the distinctions between rights, obligations and responsibilities in their moral, social and legal forms. Suitable for researchers and practitioners working in this field, it focuses upon the criminal law relating to children both as offenders and victims. |
Synopsis: |
Focusing on moral, social and legal responsibilities as opposed to rights or obligations, this volume explores the concept of responsibility in family life, law and practice. Divided into four parts, the study considers the nature of family responsibility; constructions of children's responsibilities; shifting conceptions of family responsibilities; and family, responsibility and the law. The collection brings together leading experts from the disciplines of sociology, socio-legal studies and law to discuss responsibilities prior to birth, responsibilities for children, as well as responsibilities of children and of the state towards family members. The volume informs and challenges the developing conceptualization of responsibilities which arise in interdependent, intimate and caring relationships and their legal regulation. It will be of great interest to researchers and practitioners working in this complex field. |
