Course Description
This course examines ethnographic case studies that demonstrate how relatedness, relationships, and identities are differently constructed and imagined. Anthropologists' theoretical interests in kinship lead also to the interrogation of the relationship between sex and gender, as well as masculinity and femininity, offering important insights into such topics as marriage, parenting, adoption, the family, and the role of the state. Matters of historical interest to social anthropologists are investigated together with questions of contemporary concern.
