Patterns of family life courses in Europe – between standardization and diversity. A cross-national comparison of family trajectories and life course norms in European countries

Our results confirm that the degree of destandardization varies across Europe. The most obvious tensions between rather traditional family patterns and liberalised norms were identified in Southern Europe.…
