Chinese Family Culture: Change, Continuity, and Counseling
Implications enhances social sciences and counseling students'
cultural understanding, sensitivity, and communication skills so
they can provide competent and appropriate care for Chinese
families around the world. The text focuses on cultural and
historical characteristics of Chinese families and features
illustrative stories and examples to facilitate greater cultural
understanding. Readers examine Chinese families from indigenous
perspectives of lived experiences of Chinese individuals and their
families. Chinese meanings of family life, such as marriage,
sexuality, love, gender, reproduction, intergenerational relations,
disability, and death, are covered. Dedicated chapters explore
cultural links between family collectivism, ancestor worship, and
families' intimate relationship with the land; marriage's social
role in expanding social networks and ensuring family continuity;
the impact of China's one-child policy on reproductive behavior;
the rule of rituals in handling family and clan disputes and
conflict; illness and death in Chinese families; and more. Each
chapter includes counseling implications to connect student
learning with practice. Chinese Family Culture is a timely and
essential textbook for programs and courses in the social sciences
and counseling.
