The article analyzes the main approaches to understanding the family values in dissertations in the social sciences and humanities. The family values are considered in the meanings of “the value of family and marriage”, “the values inherent in family life”, “the family values of spouses/ members of a particular family”. The dependence is shown of the family values on the kind and type of the family, as well as the correlation between family and non-family values, traditional and opposed family values. It is concluded that the lists of family values allocated in the social sciences are diverse and largely depend on the value attitudes of the researchers; and this prevents from uniform understanding of the values and effective law enforcement. It is proposed to develop an official list of family values recognized, supported and protected by the Russian state and society.
