Attachment theory has massively influenced contemporary psychology.
While intended to be general, this western theory harbors a number
of culturally biased assumptions and is devoted to decontextualized
experimental procedures that fail to challenge this ethnocentrism.
The chapters in this volume rethink attachment theory by examining
it in the context of local cultural meanings, including the
meanings of childrearing practices, the cultural models of virtue
that shape those practices, and the translation of shared childhood
experience into adult cultural understandings through developmental
and psychodynamic processes. The current volume is not only a
challenge to attachment theorists, but also an object lesson for
psychologists of many other stripes.
