In any given culture kinship is understood as "natural", but by comparing these international studies, it reveals how kinship is an ongoing project of human construction. Aspects including gender, family position and descent are explored.
Through twenty engaging essays exploring cultures ranging from ancient Judaic civilization to contemporary Brazil, Gender, Kinship and Power places important contemporary issues related to kinship--such as parental responsibility and female-headed households--in their proper comparative and historical framework.
