How Kinship Systems Change - On the Dialectics of Practice and Classification (Hardcover)
Expected to ship within 12 - 17 working days
|
Using some of his landmark publications on kinship, along with a
new introduction, chapter and conclusion, Robert Parkin discusses
here the changes in kinship terminologies and marriage practices,
as well as the dialectics between them. The chapters also focus on
a suggested trajectory, linking South Asia and Europe and the
specific question of the status of Crow-Omaha systems. The
collection culminates in the argument that, whereas marriage
systems and practices seem infinitely varied when examined from a
very close perspective, the terminologies that accompany them are
much more restricted.
