In una società in cui si sono dissolte le strutture tradizionali della parentela e della famiglia, uomini e donne si trovano costretti a darsi individualmente le regole della loro vita: ciascuno è il giudice delle proprie trasgressioni, il prete che assolve i propri peccati e il terapeuta che indaga e cura le ferite del proprio passato. La lotta per conciliare famiglia e carriera, amore e matrimonio, e per una "nuova" genitorialità ha oggi sostituito la lotta "di classe".

Celebrities are photographed nursing in public, yet breastfeeding mothers are asked to cover up in malls and on airplanes. Breastfeeding is a private act, yet everyone has an opinion about it. How did feeding our babies get so complicated? Journalist and infant health advocate Kimberly Seals Allers breaks breastfeeding out of the realm of "personal choice" and shows our broader connection to an industrialized food system that begins at birth, the fallout of feminist ideals, and the federal policies that are far from family friendly.

Adoption is often framed by happy narratives, but the reality is that many adoptees struggle with unaddressed trauma and issues of identity and belonging.

Marriage rates may be on the decline, but that doesn’t mean marriage is disappearing from society. In fact, as modern relationship norms and structures continue to evolve, the public discourse about marriage has never been louder—or more conflicted. Divorce rates, the appeal of cohabitation, seemingly infinite options for future partners, the patriarchal roots of marriage and gender roles, and economic uncertainty are just a few factors that leave a new generation of single and dating adults wondering.

In the late 1960s and 1970s, the lesbian feminist movement and the no-fault divorce revolution transformed the lives of wives who desired women. Women could now choose to divorce their husbands in order to lead openly lesbian or bisexual lives; increasingly, however, these women were confronted by hostile state discrimination, typically in legal battles over child custody. Well into the 1980s, many women remained ambivalent about divorce and resistant to labeling themselves as lesbian, therefore complicating a simple interpretation of their lives and relationship choices.

A blessed marriage between a man and a woman is a social institution that has been practiced for centuries across various cultures. It is a legal and emotional union between two individuals, typically based on love, commitment, and shared values.

Voice memos, care packages, hours-long phone conversations, treasured traditions that go back decades, glasses held aloft during wedding toasts, hands held at funerals, first cuddles with newborns, work lunches with work wives, taking it to the group chat – our friendships touch and enrich every part of our lives. But how often do we stop to consider them deeply?

In this fascinating and insightful book, feminist curator Rachael Lennon provides an intimate and intersectional examination of the history of marriage around the world.

Se in passato le donne erano soprattutto casalinghe, mamme e cuoche a tempo pieno, sempre indaffarate ma instancabili, oggi per loro prendersi cura della casa è una scelta, non più un dovere. Sono finalmente libere di fare i lavori più disparati, anche restando a lungo lontano da casa, e non sono più relegate soltanto al ruolo di mogli e madri affettuose, ma possono diventare campionesse olimpiche, ricercatrici, astronaute, manager o designer di successo.

Si può essere madri di figlie e figli che si scelgono, e che a loro volta ci hanno scelte? Si può costruire una famiglia senza vincoli di sangue? La risposta è sì. La queerness familiare è ormai una realtà, e affrontarla una necessità politica, come lo è quella di un dialogo lucido e aperto sulla gestazione per altrə, un tema che mette in crisi la presunta radice dell'essere donne. Interrogarci, discutere intorno a questa radice significa sfidare il concetto di normalità e naturalità a cui siamo abituati.

Долгие годы после окончания войны большинство немцев, разлученных ею с близкими, мечтали о воссоединении семей и нормальной жизни.

Отцы и мужья после войны и плена стали другими. Их дети росли и воспитывались в атмосфере молчания, намеков и строгости. В конце концов конфликт поколений обернулся уличными беспорядками. Флориан Хубер описывает послевоенную семейную драму с точки зрения и от имени этих людей.

Success and wealth often seem like distant aspirations, achievable only through extraordinary effort and luck. However, upon closer examination, it becomes apparent that success and wealth are not merely products of individual endeavors but are deeply intertwined with the environments in which individuals are raised. This book explores the mechanisms through which successful family environments foster achievement and prosperity across generations.

In the past thirty years, polygamy has become a flashpoint of conflict as Western governments attempt to regulate certain cultural and religious practices that challenge seemingly central principles of family and justice.

Every year, more than a million women find themselves grappling with the devastating loss of a life partner—a loss that shatters their present and leaves their future in doubt. At 65, Margaret Mandell faces this heart-wrenching reality when she loses her husband of 45 years to a fast-moving disease. The bed is now half-empty, her body betrays her, and laughter seems elusive.

È un compito difficile, o addirittura "impossibile" come scriveva Sigmund Freud, fare i genitori? È sicuramente difficile perché più o meno consciamente si vorrebbe a propria immagine e somiglianza un figlio che, invece, può prendere strade imprevedibili e inattese. Troppo spesso si desidera letteralmente costruirlo, mentre si può solo preparare il terreno in cui crescerà, curandolo, proteggendolo e amandolo. Questo libro illustra come sono cambiate le famiglie negli ultimi anni e come sono cambiati i padri e le madri.

All families have secrets but the facts requiring secrecy change with time. Nowadays a lesbian partnership, a "bastard" son, or a criminal grandfather might be of little or no consequence but could have unraveled a family at an earlier moment in history. Margaret K. Nelson is interested in how families keep secrets from each other and from outsiders when to do otherwise would risk eliciting not only embarrassment or discomfort, but profound shame and, in some cases, danger.

What if family were not the only place you might hope to feel safe, loved, cared for, and accepted? What if we could do better than the family? We need to talk about the family. For those who are lucky, families can be filled with love and care, but for many they are sites of pain: from abandonment and neglect, to abuse and violence. Nobody is more likely to harm you than your family.
