In the Metamorphoses of Kinship, the world-renowned anthropologist Maurice Godelier contextualizes these developments, surveying the accumulated experience of humanity with regard to such phenomena as the organization of lines of descent, sexuality and sexual prohibitions. In parallel, Godelier studies the evolution of Western conjugal and familial traditions from their roots in the nineteenth century to the present. The conclusion he draws is that it is never the case that a man and a woman are sufficient on their own to raise a child, and nowhere are relations of kinship or the family the keystone of society. Godelier argues that the changes of the last thirty years do not herald the disappearance or death agony of kinship, but rather its remarkable metamorphosis--one that, ironically, is bringing us closer to the 'traditional' societies studied by ethnologists."--Jacket. 000637875 546__ $$aTranslation of: Métamorphoses de la parenté. 000637875 650_0 $$aFamilies. 000637875 650_0 $$aParenthood. 000637875 650_0 $$aSocial structure. 000637875 7001_ $$aScott, Nora. 000637875 85200 $$bgen$$hHQ503$$i.G613$$i2011 000637875 85642 $$3Contributor biographical information$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1312/2011277164-b.html 000637875 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1312/2011277164-d.html 000637875 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:637875$$pGLOBAL_SET 000637875 980__ $$aBIB 000637875 980__ $$aBOOK
