Abstract
This special section includes four studies of coparenting and children’s development in European families and one concluding paper commenting on the studies and projecting future directions. For two decades, research has shown the central role of coparenting dynamics in child’s development in diverse families systems. Research reported in this section was conducted in four different European countries and highlights focal perspectives both for research and for practice.
