Rural areas have been hit hard by economic restructuring. Traditionally male jobs with good pay and benefits (such as in manufacturing) have declined dramatically, only to be replaced with lowpaying serviceoriented jobsjobs that do not offer benefits or wages sufficient to raise a family. Concurrently, rural areas have experienced changes in family life, namely an increase in womens labor force participation, a decline in marriedcouple families, and a rise in cohabitation and singleparent families. How have rural families coped with these social and economic changes? Economic Restructuring and Family WellBeing in Rural America documents the intertwined changes in employment and family and explores the outcomes for family wellbeing in rural America. Here a multidisciplinary group of scholars examines the impacts of economic restructuring on rural Americans and provides policy recommendations for addressing the challenges they face.In addition to the editors, the contributors are Cynthia D.
