演講摘要:
There is no such thing as “The European Family”, and there is no trend to it as a theory of modernity might suggest. Despite proclaimed universal trends to lower fertility, higher marriage age or rising divorce rates we face a diversity of family situations in the European Nations. 
This presentation is on the diversity and an ever changing situation of the family. Differences not only occur in the data, I argue you have to take into account the economic, cultural peculiarities as well as the tradition of policies for the family in the different countries in Europe. Some results also show a reversal of the proclaimed trend: not de-institutionalization but re-institutionalization of traditional family values. 
These facts form the basis of the project Families And Societies, consisting of 25 research partners in fifteen different nations, coordinated by the University of Stockholm. Rudolf Richter and Irena Kotowska coordinate a work package on the gendered transition to parenthood, which is ongoing. It deals mainly with the fact, that after marriage we experience a traditionalization of gender roles. For instance, preliminary results of an Austrian qualitative study show the complexity of the transition process and the changing of fatherhood styles. 
The project as a whole will analyze the diversity and should offer policy suggestions. Stakeholders are involved. 
Having in mind the ambiguity of the family situation and its explanation and interpretation I am inclined to conclude: Europe has never been modern.
