As the planet's human numbers grow and environmental concerns proliferate, natural scientists, economists, and policy-makers are increasingly turning to new and old questions about families and kinship as matters of concern. From government programs designed to fight declining birth rates in Europe and East Asia, to controversial policies seeking to curb population growth in countries where birth rates remain high, to increasing income inequality transnationally, issues of reproduction introduce new and complicated moral and political quandaries. Making Kin Not Population ends the silence on these issues with essays from leading anti-racist, ecologically-concerned, feminist scholars. Though not always in accord, these contributors provide bold analyses of complex issues of intimacy and kinship, from reproductive justice to environmental justice, and from human and nonhuman genocides to new practices for making families and kin. This timely work offers vital proposals for forging innovative personal and public connections in the contemporary world.

Die Situationsanalyse schliesst an den Grounded Theory-Ansatz an, erweitert ihn und eroffnet neue Perspektiven fur die qualitative Forschung in den Sozial- und Geisteswissenschaften, die Professionsforschung sowie verwandte Arbeitsfelder. Prazise Mapping-Methoden generieren differenzierte und komplexe empirische Studien. Verwendet werden Interviews, ethnographisches, historisches, visuelles und anderes diskursives Datenmaterial, einschliesslich Multi-Site-Forschung. Die Situationsanalyse verknupft Diskurs und Handeln, Handlung und Struktur, Bild, Schrift und die historische Dimension der Phanomene zu "dichten Analysen." Situations-Maps verdeutlichen wichtige menschliche, nichtmenschliche, diskursive und andere Elemente und erlauben so, die Beziehungen zwischen ihnen zu analysieren.
Maps von Sozialen Welten oder Arenen veranschaulichen kollektive Akteure und die Arenen ihres Engagements und Diskurses. Positions-Maps zeigen auf, welche Schlusselpositionen eingenommen und auch welche nicht eingenommen werden. Die Situation selbst wird zum analytischen Schwerpunkt."
