Cross-Cultural Approaches to Adoption: European Association of Social Anthropologists
Editat de Fiona Bowieen Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 oct 2004
These articles look at adoption practices from Africa, Oceania, Asia and Central America, including examples of societies in which children are routinely separated from their biological parents or passed through several foster families. Showing the range and flexibility of the child-rearing practices that approximate to the Western term 'adoption', they demonstrate the benefits of a cross-cultural appreciation of family life, and allow a broader understanding of the varied relationships that exist between children and adoptive parents.
