335 p., paperback. Zustand: Wie neu. Key issues in the field of family studies and practical ways of reconstructing personal family history are explored in this book, a collection of essays and four workshop transcripts from the Smithsonian Institution's Sixth International Symposium, held in Washington, D.C. on June 14-17, 1977. Selected from such disciplines as biology, history, sociology, and anthropology, these essays challenge the mind to find new connections between accepted truths and propositions from both the humanities and the sciences. Kin and Communities fills some gaps in knowledge about the enduring place of families and communities as society's building blocks and in our understanding of the biological, historical, and social processes connecting our smallest social units with the largest institutions. The first two articles, Devra G. Kleiman's "Lessons from Nature? Monogamy Among Humans and Other Mammals" and T. Dale Stewart's "The First Americans: Migrations to a New World," take a broad approach to the study of families. In contrast to the broad perspective of these two works, David F. Musto, "Continuity Across Generations: The Adams Family Myth," considers four generations of one family and its transmission of the family "myth," the common view of the world and the family's place in it. The next three articles, Glen H. Elder, Jr., and Richard C. Rockwell "The Depression Experience in Men's Lives"; John Modell, "Changing Risks, Changing Adaptations: American Families in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries," and Jacquelyne Johnson Jackson and Bertram Emmanuel Walls, "Aging Patterns in Black Families," all focus on the theme of family "life cycles." The interaction between families and communities is the common theme of the next three articles: David M. Schneider, "Kinship, Community, and Locality in American Culture"; Seena B. Kohl, "The Making of a Community: The Role of Women in an Agricultural Setting," and Maris A. Vinovskis and Barbara Rosenkrantz, "Caring for the Insane in Ante-Bellum Massachusetts: Family, Community, and State Participation." The final essay, Francis L.K. Hsu, "Roots of the American Family: From Noah to Now," presents an unconventional etiology of the ills besetting American families. Good copy. Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.
