About the Book

Deviating significantly from exisiting discourses on family and kinship, this book offers new conceptualizations which view individuals and relationships as crucial elements. Through a combination of macro and micro perspectives, it provides a comparative and gendered analysis of shifts within marriage, family, kin and social networks of people living in societies undergoing substantial change in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.
