Celebrating 10 years of Families, Relationships and Societies
Families, Relationships and Societies (FRS) is a social science journal designed to advance scholarship and debate in the growing field of families and relationships across the life course. It explores family life, relationships and generational issues from interdisciplinary, social science perspectives, whilst maintaining a solid grounding in sociological theory and methods and a strong policy and practice focus.
To mark the journal’s 10th anniversary, we’re making highlights from the journal free to access throughout 2021, including a free collection of seminal articles from the journal,
