Abstract
Economic and occupational crises, social vulnerability, life-course uncertainty are affecting Italian family life conditions. This worsening situation seems to affect not only the lower class but also the middle class, causing impoverishment and social marginality even where the social position had seemed stable since a few time ago. But the phenomenon is difficult to interpret.
