本文讨论了亲属关系是如何在不同形式的家庭中被解释和制定的，这些家庭现在是西方社会多元文化家庭制度的一部分。这是两项研究中的第二项，它们记录了过去一个世纪以来西方工业化社会家庭制度中亲属关系的意义和实践的变化。虽然第一篇论文回顾了亲属关系研究的历史，但这篇配套文章将重点转移到研究探索替代家庭形式的亲属关系，这些家庭形式偏离了标准的核心家庭结构。这项审查是在b谷歌Scholar和Web of Science上直接针对非标准家庭形式进行多次搜索后进行的，搜索词包括“同居和亲属关系”、“同性家庭和亲属关系”、“人工生殖技术和亲属关系”等。大约70%的研究集中在美国，而剩下的30%集中在其他西方工业化社会。我们确定了创建替代家庭形式的三个一般过程，并讨论了亲属关系实践在每个过程中的作用。第一组替代家庭形式是通过正式婚姻的变化或缺席而产生的，包括连续婚姻、多重婚姻、双方同意的结合、单亲家庭、同性婚姻和伴侣关系。第二组是由于生殖过程的变化而形成的，当一个孩子不是两个人性交的产物时。第三类是自愿结合的结果，这种自愿结合被认为是类似于亲属关系的，其中的从属关系既不依赖于生物学基础，也不依赖于法律基础。这项研究的结果表明，在“家庭关系”中纳入潜在亲属的包容性方法得到了广泛的文化接受。这在很大程度上是由个人决定，他们是否认识或体验到弥漫的情感联系感和感知到的义务，这是亲属关系的特征。此外，家庭脚本和亲属术语经常借用西方标准家庭形式中观察到的词汇和育儿实践。与此同时，生物学的文化重要性仍然很强。该研究通过确定亲属关系文献中的重要空白，并为未来制定研究议程，包括建立亲属关系人口统计。
This paper discusses how kinship is construed and enacted in diverse forms of the family that are now part of the culturally pluralistic family system of Western societies. The study is the second in a pair documenting changes over the past century in the meaning and practice of kinship in the family system of Western societies with industrialized economies. While the first paper reviewed the history of kinship studies, this companion piece shifts the focus to research explorations of kinship in alternative family forms, those that depart from the standard nuclear family structure. The review was conducted running multiple searches on Google Scholar and Web of Science directly targeting non-standard family forms, using search terms as “cohabitation and kinship,” “same-sex family and kinship,” and “Artificial Reproductive Technology and kinship,” among others. About 70 percent of studies focused on the United States, while the remaining 30 percent focused on other industrialized Western societies. We identified three general processes by which alternative family forms are created and discussed how kinship practices work in each of them. The first cluster of alternative family forms comes about through variations of formal marriage or its absence, including sequential marriages, plural marriages, consensual unions, single parenthood, and same-sex marriages and partnerships. The second cluster is formed as a result of alterations in the reproduction process, when a child is not the product of sexual intercourse between two people. The third cluster results from the formation of voluntary bonds that are deemed to be kinship-like, in which affiliation rests on neither biological nor legal bases. Findings from this study point to a broad cultural acceptance of an inclusive approach to incorporating potential kin in “family relationships.” It is largely left to individuals to decide whether they recognize or experience the diffuse sense of emotional connectedness and perceived obligation that characterizes the bond of kinship. Also, family scripts and kinship terms often borrow from the vocabulary and parenting practices observed in the standard family form in the West. Concurrently, the cultural importance of biology remains strong. The study concludes by identifying important gaps in the kinship literature and laying out a research agenda for the future, including building a demography of kinship.
