Download or read book Family in the Caribbean written by Christine Barrow and published by Ian Randle Publishers. This book was released on 1996 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Family in the Caribbean provides a comprehensive review of the extensive literature on family, household and conjugal unions in the Caribbean. The book is constructed around six themes prominent in Caribbean family studies, namely definitions of the family, plural and creole society, social structure, gender roles and relationships, methodology, history and social change. Part I critically assesses theoretical trends and interpretations from the perspectives of African heritage, colonial social welfare, structural functionalism, adaptive responses to poverty and kinship ideology and practice. Concepts such as matrifocality, male marginality, female headed household and kinship network are examined. Part II reviews substantive topics of slave family structure, East Indian family patterns, childhood socialisation and social policy. An added feature is the inclusion of selected readings from works by the main contributors to Caribbean family theory which provide a handy reference for readers. These readings are conveniently placed at the end of each section. The author's objective is to pave the way for future investigations which study Caribbean families in their own right, and in the process help to bury the ethnocentric images of deviant and disorganised families.

Download or read book The Power Of Sentiment written by Lisa Douglass and published by Westview Press. This book was released on 1992-06-11 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yet the kinship practices of the family elite do not merely serve to maintain their position or promote their interests, as some critics have suggested. The elite marry according to enduring cultural dispositions about the proper ordering of color, gender, and class relations, following their sense of what "feels right." In their view, they marry not out of self-interest, but "for love." The Power of Sentiment breaks new ground in ethnographic studies of kinship. Lisa Douglass examines the upper class, a group previously neglected in research on the Caribbean family despite its integral role in the kinship system. She provides fresh insights into what earlier studies termed the color/ class hierarchy by considering how gender both affects what these categories represent and is itself a distinct dimension of the social order. The author also makes a significant contribution to theories of ideology and practice.
