This review of The Supportive State: Families, Government and America’s Political Ideals highlights Maxine Eichner’s important theoretical contributions to both liberal political theory and feminist theory, applauding her success in reforming liberalism to account for dependency, vulnerability, and families. The review then considers some implications of Eichner’s proposals and their likely reception among feminists. It concludes that The Supportive State is a sound and inspiring response to recent calls that feminist theory move from being strictly a school of criticism to developing a theory of governance.

This new book1 by the authors of Beyond the Best Interests of the Child2 also makes a major contribution to the field of family law. Concentrating this time on the subject of child neglect and abuse, the authors mount a powerful attack on state intrusion into families under current child protection laws. Like Beyond the Best Interests, this book has attracted wide attention and provoked intense controversy. It should be read by all those concerned about the law's impact on children and families.
