Abstract

Das Verhältnis von Familie und Staat ist als widersprüchlich zu charakterisieren: Ideologisch dient das Symbolsystem Familie, vorgestellt als „natürliche” Form sozialen Zusammenlebens, als zentrale Legitimationsfigur für den (National-)Staat. Aber Familie als reale Sozialform wird durch staatliches Handeln konstituiert und stabilisiert.

Patriarchale Familienideologien werden zumeist in gesellschaftlichen Krisenzeiten (re-)aktiviert, in denen Männer um ihre Vormacht-Stellung bangen. Dementsprechend führte auch die Krise des Fordismus zu ihrer Wiederbelebung. Vor diesem Hintergrund bildete sich im Bereich der Familienpolitik eine scheinbar „unheilige” Allianz zwischen (Neo-)Liberalismus und (Neo-)Konservativismus. Unheilig deshalb, weil der (neo-)liberale Kult des Individuums geradezu die Antithese zur (neo-)konservativen Verklärung der (patriarchalen) Familie als Solidargemeinschaft darstellt. Intention dieser Arbeit ist es aufzuzeigen, warum diese Verbindung nicht so absurd ist, wie es scheint.
