By family benefits this paper understands those cash benefits given to the family on behalf of specific family functions such as raising children and caring for the disabled. The object of the paper is to analyze (a) how different systems of social security are dealing with the problems of subsidising families and (b) how the legal structures of these new benefits respond to the changes in structure and functions of the family.
