    The article reviews feminist family research from the 1980s and argues that this research moved beyond studying women's roles in the private sphere. It discusses how feminist family research challenged the public/private dichotomy and examined power relationships and social structures. The research demonstrated that the personal is political by showing how the family is shaped by broader ideological and economic conditions. The review concludes that feminist family research produced insights that expanded understandings of gender, family life, and social change.
