This is the first step of our final and ultimete goal of this research to build up a new system of policy science which deals with the independence of individuals from many different aspects ; family, employment, social welfare and so on. In France, the system of marriage and the system of family has already started to collapse far earlier than Japan. And, new forms of couple and family have al ready been created, and they are going far beyond. In viewing the prospect of future families, we should compare the two components that had been important elements of family, which are the gender relations and generational relations. And finally, we found that there are three components in considering the future of employment and welfare policy in Japan, instead of only two in case of France. In France they argue employment and social welfare only from the nation and family, however, enterprises are playing indispensable role in addition to those two. And the re-distribution system through conventional family system should urgently needed to reform to promote the independence of individuals in the families in Japan However, this is only the first step of inter-disciplinary and international research project between France and Japan. We would further continue our research work focusing on the independence of individuals.
