- Assess The Marxist View That The Main Role Of The Family Is To Serve The Interests Of Capitalism
- Inheritance of Property - Ensures wives stay faithful (monogamous) as the men will always have a full blood child to pass on estates and wealth to (protects capital)
- False Conciousness - Refers to the ideology dominating the consciousness of exploited groups and classes which at the same time justifies and perpetuates their inequality
- Unit Of Consumption - The nuclear family is efficient to capitalism as is creates highly mobile units who purchase of goods and services in profitable amounts
