This Week on Family Studies


We released a new research brief by University of Alabama political science professor George Hawley, The Demographics of the Alt-Right, and IFS senior fellow W. Bradford Wilcox interviewed syndicated columnist Jonah Goldberg about his new book, Suicide of the West. Mary Rose Somarriba reviewed the documentary, Three Identical Strangers, and Harry Benson reported on a new UK study that links teen mental health to family relationships.
