Family Relationships in the Digital Era explores the adoption of digital technologies within various types of family relationships and discusses their potential to foster connection while also having the capacity to create rifts and distance.

The book reconciles the psychological and psychosocial dynamics of human family relationships with the digitally immersed, hyperconnected social environments they inhabit. Synthesizing 15 years of research, it explores technology use in a range of family relationships from romantic relationships and parent-child bonds to siblings and later-life kin networks, including transnational family relationships across distance. Expert contributors from diverse disciplines provide a multidisciplinary perspective, bridging communication studies, family studies, media studies, migration studies and more.

Addressing both personal and societal concerns, this book appeals to a wide readership from academics, educators, and policymakers to anyone interested in the impact of technology on modern family life.
