This paper provides an overview and analysis of changes in Chinese family structure and practices and their relation to the widespread and far-reaching policies of the post-Mao Chinese state. Following a brief overview of the traditional Chinese family and the impact of Mao's Revolutionary state on Chinese family structure and traditions, the analysis focuses closely on family transformations during the reform (1978-present) period. The analysis profiles specific state policies (e.g., Marriage Law, one-child policy, household responsibility system, social welfare policies, economic policies and the four modernizations, etc.) which have influenced the family structure; reviews demographic changes in the Chinese family since the Mao era; and looks at some of the specific changes in terms of marriage patterns, birth patterns, parenting practices, and living arrangements.
