In recent decades the concept of kinship has been challenged and reinvigorated by the so-called "repatriation of anthropology" and by the influence of feminist studies, queer studies, adoption studies, and science and technology studies. These interdisciplinary approaches have been further developed by increases in infertility, reproductive travel, and transnational adoption, all of which have served to challenge reinforce hegemonic Western practices of kinship. Critical Kinship brings together theoretical and disciplinary perspectives and analytically sensitive perspectives aiming to explore the manifold versions of kinship and the ways in which norms of biology are enforced or challenged in different kinship formations. The Rowman and Littlefield International - Intersections series presents an overview of the latest research and emerging trends in some of the most dynamic areas of research in the Humanities and Social Sciences today. Critical Kinship should be of particular interest to students and scholars in Anthropology, Sociology, Cultural Studies, Medical Humanities, Politics, Gender and Queer Studies and Globalization.
