Reproduction outside Marriage : The Exemple of a Portuguese Village (1862-1983)
According to statistics covering a century and a half of the life of a village in central Portugal, there has always been a high rate of men and women who remain single, and there have always been many births outside marriage. In fact, nearly all single mothers belong to social strata excluded from the circulation of goods. In this society, celibacy represents the means of reproducing, without dividing a heritage, the labor necessary to family farms by constituting a filiation separate from the inheritance of wealth. This filiation is established by godfatherhood, which defines the social position of single persons' children. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
