Anthropological Perspectives on Care: Work, Kinship, and the Life-Course
ISBN: 9781137513434 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. In the course of last two decades, the notion of care has become prominent in the social and cultural sciences. As a result of this proliferation of care in several disciplinary fields, we are observing not only the expansion of its conceptual meaning, but also an increasing imprecision in its usage. A growing amount of literature focuses on the intersection between work, gender, ethnicity, affect, and mobility regimes. In view of this growing field of literature, Anthropological Perspectives on Care looks at the notion of care from an anthropological perspective. Complementing earlier...

Transfers of Belonging: Child Fostering in West Africa in the 20th Century
ISBN: 9789004359802 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Transfers of Belonging, Erdmute Alber traces the history of child fostering in northern Benin from the pre-colonial past to the present by pointing out the embeddedness of child foster practices and norms in a wider political process of change. Child fostering was, for a long time, not just one way of raising children, but seen as the appropriate way of doing so. This changed profoundly with the arrival of European ideas about birth parents being the ‘right’ parents, but also with the introduction of schooling and the differentiation of life chances. Besides providing deep historical...

Reconnecting State and Kinship
ISBN: 9780812249514 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Within the social sciences, kinship and statehood are often seen as two distinct modes of social organization, sometimes conceived of as following each other in a temporal line and sometimes as operating on different scales. Kinship is traditionally associated with small-scale communities in stateless societies. The state, meanwhile, is viewed as a development away from kinship as political order toward rational, impersonal, and functional forms of rule. In recent decades, theoretical and empirical scholarship has challenged these notions, but the underlying presumption of a deep-rooted...

Child Fostering in West Africa: New Perspectives on Theory and Practices
ISBN: 9789004250574 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Child fostering is an age-old and also modern phenomenon whose importance stretches much further than the boundaries of so-called 'traditional' African societies. As a mobile and creative kinship practice, child fostering is of growing importance in the global world as it goes along with other forms of mobility such as migration and transnationalism. The book aims to revitalize the study of fostering by situating the issue in more recent theoretical approaches to kinship. It also examines what functionalist and structuralist theory may still contribute to the understanding of child fostering....
