The Biggest Issue of our Time? How the Economy is Breaking Down the Family and the Real Effects on Future Generations

June Carbone, Chair of the University of Minnesota Law School, joins us to discuss her new research and book, “Marriage Markets”. Newsweek calls it one of the most important books of 2014, and for good reason. Her large body of research shows how the break down of marriage is having monumental effects on the next generation. Different from most discussions on the topic, which blames culture, Carbone looks to the breakdown of the economy and it’s effects on marriage, equality, and the welfare of children.

June Carbone’s book, “Marriage Markets”, can be purchased at Amazon.com and at most online bookstores.
