THE LAW OF KINSHIP: ANTHROPOLOGY, PSYCHOANALYSIS, AND THE FAMILY IN FRANCE
Book ID/图书代码: 03360013B61595
English Summary/英文概要: In France as elsewhere in recent years, legislative debates over single-parent households, same-sex unions, new reproductive technologies, transsexuality, and other challenges to long-held assumptions about the structure of family and kinship relations have been deeply divisive. What strikes many as uniquely French, however, is the extent to which many of these discussions—whether in legislative chambers, courtrooms, or the mass media—have been conducted in the frequently abstract vocabularies of anthropology and psychoanalysis.
In this highly original book, Camille Robcis seeks to explain why and how academic discourses on kinship have intersected and overlapped with political debates on the family—and on the nature of French republicanism itself. She focuses on the theories of Claude Levi-Strauss and Jacques Lacan, both of whom highlighted the interdependence of the sexual and the social by positing a direct correlation between kinship and socialization. Robcis traces how their ideas gained recognition not only from French social scientists but also from legislators and politicians who relied on some of the most obscure and difficult concepts of structuralism to enact a series of laws concerning the family.
Levi-Strauss and Lacan constructed the heterosexual family as a universal trope for social and psychic integration, and this understanding of the family at the root of intersubjectivity coincided with the role that the family has played in modern French law and public policy. The Law of Kinship contributes to larger conversations about the particularities of French political culture, the nature of sexual difference, and the problem of reading and interpretation in intellectual history.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 近几年,和法国的其他地方一样,立法辩论在单亲家庭,同性婚姻,新的生殖技术,性欲以及长久以来关于家庭结构和亲属关系的假设上有很大争议。很多独特的法国人已经罢工了,然而,在一定程度上这些已经讨论很多遍了,无论是议院还是法庭或者是大众媒体,已经在人类学,精神分析学这些抽象词汇中进行了频繁的分析。
在这本高精度的原装书中,Camille Robcis试图解释为什么以及如何,用学术和政治辩论来论述有交叉和重叠的亲属关系的家庭,还要考虑法国本身共和的国家性质。
她专注于克洛德•列维•斯特劳斯和雅克•拉康的理论,两人都强调通过在亲属关系和社会之间的准确定位,性和社会是相互依存的。 Robcis追踪他们的想法是如何得到认可的,不仅仅是法国社会科学家的认可,还有立法者和政客,他们依靠一些最晦涩难懂的概念,结构,制定了一系列有关家庭的法律。
列维•斯特劳斯和拉康把构建异性家庭作为社会和精神整合的一个普遍的比喻。这种对家庭的理解,恰好和家庭在现代法国法律和公共政策中扮演的角色一致。《亲属法》有助于法国政治文化,性别差异的本质,以及思想史上阅读和理解的问题这些方面的交流。(LNL)
