Abstract

Familienpolitik hat Konjunktur und ist ins Zentrum der politischen Agenda gerückt, weil sie eng mit Demographie- und Wachstumspolitik verbunden ist. Über die Notwendigkeit einer wirksamen Familienpolitik herrscht Einigkeit, aber welches Konzept ist das richtige? Christa Stewens, Bayerische Staatsministerin für Arbeit und Sozialordnung, Familie und Frauen, unterstreicht, dass Familienpolitik "ganzheitlich und nachhaltig angelegt sein" muss. Auch Malte Ristau, Bundesministerium für Familie, Senioren, Frauen und Jugend, verweist darauf, dass eine nur auf monetäre Hilfe angelegte Familienpolitik ein zu enger Ansatz sei. Reiner Klingholz, Berlin-Institut für Bevölkerung und Entwicklung, zeigt, dass interessanterweise nicht die Länder, in denen ein traditionelles Frauen- und Familienbild vorherrscht, sondern jene, in denen die Gleichstellung der Geschlechter am weitesten fortgeschritten ist, die höchste Fertilität aufweisen. Bertram Wiest und Stefan Schaible, Roland Berger Strategy Consultants, betonen das hohe Finanzvolumen, das in Deutschland vom Staat für Leistungen für Familien ausgegeben wird: "Es mangelt also nicht an Geld, sondern am zielgerichteten Mitteleinsatz". Für Michael Steiner, Michael Böhmer und Christian Böllhoff, Prognos AG, Basel, muss sich die Familienpolitik an das neue Familienbild anpassen und sowohl Gestaltungsfreiräume für Familie einrichten, als auch Chancengleichheit gewährleisten. Auch für Christel Humme, familienpolitische Sprecherin der SPD-Bundestagsfraktion, kommt es vor allem auf die richtige Mischung zwischen "Infrastruktur, Zeit und Geld für Familien" an. Deshalb sei es nicht ausreichend, wenn Familienpolitik nur auf den Ausbau von finanziellen Leistungen setzen würde. Eine an den Bedürfnissen der jungen Menschen ausgerichtete Familienpolitik müsse Familien unterstützen und die Vereinbarkeit von Familie und Beruf verbessern.
