Parenthood : A question of life or a question of survival ? The
article looks at the varying forms taken by parenthood in different societies, past and
present. It examines how it belatedly came to be defined by Lewis Morgan, in the context of
our modern societies, in terms of an aristocratic and genetic conception, thus establishing a
model which Lévi-Strauss unintentionally took to an aporia. Against such a schematic
conceptualisation of parenthood, the article posits the material and sentimental links which
grow from the responsibilities assumed for the material and educational needs of minors by
« parents » devoid of any genetic link to those who are dependent on their care. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
