- Description
- The themes covered in a workshop on this subject are divided in four corresponding sections of the volume, the first covering the social history of the family: the second concentrating on images and symbolic practices: the third emphasising the interaction between the family and the state: and the last stressing the fault lines of the family. The volume brings together perspectives from Germany and India, which together 'de-naturalise', 'de-biologise' and 'de-mythologise' the concept of family within the medium of gender.
