Isi artikel

Four methods for projecting the contemporary American family into the future are delineated and evaluated: (1) Extrapolation of current trends of the family, (2) making inferences from differences among three generations of contemporary family lines, (3) inferring from the alleged impacts of current inventions on the family, and (4) deriving value preferences from the writings and researches undertaken by family specialists of different periods. None of the products of these methods justifies the lugubrious picture of a disintegrating family without future functions; in fact, the findings suggest accelerated upgrading in the amenities, increasingly flexible family organization, and improved competence in planning and decision-making. A plea is made to insure this outcome through a program of family development, a progressive upgrading of families through education and service comparable to contemporary programs of urban renewal and community development.
