“…Основу ее составляет модель «кокона безопасности» (Giddens, 1992), а главной задачей является повышение рождаемости. При этом такая модель семейности начала формироваться еще во второй половине XVIII века и глубоко инкорпорирована в советское и постсоветское семейное право (Muravyeva, 2013). Дефициты подобного подхода видятся в следующем.…”

Introduction: one of the most important great challenges is the demographic transition which brings about changes in people’s life styles, aging of the population and the expansion of various kinds of social, sometimes rather destructive, experiments. This, in turn, requires adequate actions on the part of the state, development of an effective social policy that can offset the effects of major challenges, as well as destructive hybrid influences both within the country and from outside. Objectives: to identify the main problems and contradictions of the state family policy in Russia, to assess its adequacy against the trends in modern societies development. Methods: formal-logical, comparative, secondary data analysis, content analysis. Results: a number of directions in transformation of family life and their manifestations in Russia have been identified; main discursive and practical aspects of the state family policy have been analyzed as well as its key dysfunctions. Conclusions: family resilience as a social institution has not changed significantly over the past 20 years. However, the number of Russians who are ready to justify abortion is declining, and, conversely, the number of those who are ready to justify divorce is increasing. The family today is still constructed as an institution of social control and reproduction of rigid gender roles. Moreover, in recent decades, certain strata of Russian society have returned to traditional conservative models of close relationships. State family policy is unable to neutralize the negative consequences of grand challenges and needs to be rethought. Its key dysfunction is the rigidity of discursive and social practices, ignorance of the real changes that are taking place in close relationships today. In addition, family policy is poorly integrated with other areas of state policy: there are no uniform methodological approaches to lifelong human development.

“…Prior research in multigenerational households, especially in Asian and European contexts (Toivo, 2016), has found that the meddlesome practises of elderly figures who intrude into the daily lives of offspring become fodders for conflict even as offspring age into adulthood and contribute in significant ways to parricides (Chilton, 2002). As a point of comparison, mothers and fathers-in-law routinely appeared as victims in scenes of parricide in South Korea and Russia, as women married and moved into their husbands' households and the domestic conflicts between daughters-in-law and their in-laws erupted into fatal violence (Muravyeva, 2013(Muravyeva, , 2016. The multigenerational character of households in South Africa shapes the victimisation patterns in similar ways.…”

Previous studies of homicides in South Africa have examined serial murders and mass killings. While some scholars have examined parricides in African countries such as Ghana and Zimbabwe, few have examined the intersection of parricide and multiple victim homicides in the context of South Africa. This paper examines multiple victim parricides in a South African context using newspapers and court records as data. Eighteen cases of multiple-victim parricides were identified and analysed. Our findings indicate that multiple victim parricides in South Africa are shaped by residential patterns as well as social and cultural factors that are unique to South Africa that are embodied in the offence characteristics. The implications on the findings are discussed.
