Cultures of Relatedness: New Approaches to the Study of Kinship
Janet Carsten
Anthropologists discuss changing ideas of relatedness, transformed by radical changes in marriage arrangements, gender relations and new reproductive technologies. We can no longer assume that fundamental social relationships are grounded in 'biology' or 'nature', and this brings into question received wisdom at the heart of the study of kinship.
