The Functions of Sub-Systems of the Family Structure

Abstract

The family is a fertile field of knowledge that has attracted the attention of researchers in the humanities and social sciences, both in terms of function and roles and in terms of composition and structure. The family structure has been exposed to change and renewal over the ages due to social change and cultural contact. As a result, several types and differences in the family structure have emerged, forming systems that reflect the nature of the social context of the family. In this research paper, we will discuss the concept of the family structure and its sub-systems, as well as its function.
