Pelo facto da agricultura portuguesa assentar maioritariamente nas famílias agrícolas - sistemas de família/exploração - são elas que constituem as unidades centrais do nosso estudo. Estas unidades, devido à sua natureza biológica e demográfica, enformam entidades em permanente alteração. Ao longo do tempo cada uma percorre um ciclo de desenvolvimento que não é mais do que uma sucessão de momentos-fase que marcam a vida de uma unidade familiar, desde a sua formação à sua dissolução, experimentando, assim, alterações consideráveis na sua dimensão, na sua composição sexual e etária, nas capacidades e exigências dos seus elementos, nas relações e nos papéis que desempenham na família. O estudo incide no conceito de ciclo de vida da família, suas interpretações teóricas e operacionalização empírica no âmbito da pesquisa.
Due to the fact that the portuguese agriculture is mainly based on families’ farming - family/farm systems - they constitute the central units of our study. These units, because of their biological and demographic characteristics, form entities in permanent alteration. Over the time each one covers a cycle of development which is not more than a succession of moments-phase that mark the life of a familiar unit, since its beginning to its dissolution, experimenting, thus, considerable alterations in its dimension, in its age and sexual composition, as well as in its capacities and requirements of its elements, in the relations and roles that they play in the family. The study focuses on the concept of the family’s life cycle, its theoretical interpretations and empirical operation in the scope of the research.
