This book is a collection of essays seeking to investigate the much-discussed, but nonetheless fundamental, issue of variations in the legal recognition of categories of domestic relationship. As the title suggests, the volume poses the question of how inclusive family law can ‘be(come)’ using the theme of ‘caring and sharing’. These two aspects of domestic life are identified by the editors as the features justifying legal recognition and adjudication for relationships, as well as being the factors proving ‘particularly problematic for women’ within those relationships. The book, it seems, sets out to consider the extent to which the law does and should recognise the multifarious relationships where caring and sharing are present, and what the consequences of such recognition or non-recognition are.
