Settling Down is a unique longitudinal study tracing how people attempt to improve their lives after divorce. Drawing on 500 in-depth interviews at two points in time, it follows the lives of divorced parents of dependent children for five to eight years after separation.
This is an intriguing examination of the financial and psychological impacts on people of getting through the divorce, adjusting to different housing, to new jobs or to employment, to new schools and new partners, and to caring for children after separation.
There are important lessons in this book for family law, social security and employment policies, and it contains significant insights for people concerned with divorce and its aftermath.
