All Our Kin is the chronicle of a young white woman's sojourn into The Flats, an African-American ghetto community, to study the support system family and friends form when coping with poverty. Eschewing the traditional method of entry into the community used by anthropologists -- through authority figures and community leaders -- she approached the families herself by way of an acquaintance from school, becoming one of the first sociologists to explore the black kinship network from the inside. The result was a landmark study that debunked the misconception that poor families were unstable and disorganized. On the contrary, her study showed that families in The Flats adapted to their poverty conditions by forming large, resilient, lifelong support networks based on friendship and family that were very powerful, highly structured and surprisingly complex. Universally considered the best analysis of family and kinship in a ghetto black community ever published, All Our Kin is also an indictment of a social system that reinforces welfare dependency and chronic unemployment. As today's political debate over welfare reform heats up, its message has become more important than ever.
作者的數據、論證過程和結論對我來說都不具很強的說服力。在結論裏作者說到,底層黑人社區的這種kin-based network結構是為瞭生存而犧牲發展(upward mobility和marriage,)當人們想要往kin network外發展時,就需要衡量失去這種穩定性的代價,於是會放棄婚姻和主流價值觀。可是,作者沒有說服我為什麼生存和發展會是對立的,這種kinship也不是黑人文化獨有的,為什麼偏偏在這裏就會有這種對立呢? 作者想以黑人社區的kin-based network證明其實黑人傢庭並不是像學界一貫的觀點那樣,是broken的,可是,如果這種結構成為黑人組成傳統傢庭的阻礙,難道不正是一個問題嗎?
評分黑人社區的傢庭觀念。 有點類似於更早時候中國農村的鄰裏概念。 對於一個物質較為貧乏的社區來說,同處一個關係網絡中可以保證大傢能夠共度難關。 但是換句話說,當社區中有一個人有發達的跡象之後,也會齣現大傢一起分一杯羹的狀況,盡管這筆財産是非常私人的物品。 之前對於黑人傢庭的社會學研究結果之一就是導緻黑人傢庭久久不能脫貧最重要的因素之一是單親傢庭。由黑人婦女撫育第一胎的低齡化導緻貧睏。作者在本書中用人類學的進路反駁瞭這一點。在低收入的黑人社區中,傢庭結構與白人核心傢庭的結構不同。但是在社區的扶養之下,以及外婆、姨婆、姨母等女性親友的直接扶養下,以及社區各位父母一起教育孩子,孩子們一起成長的環境中,這些黑人孩子所受的關愛並不比所謂白人傢庭更少。
評分gift giving creates a relationship, an obligation,an expectation on the person who receives your gift to help you later on in return. 這個觀點不能同意更多!所以sharing什麼的真的很纍(。逆轉瞭Tonnies Gemeinschaft那條chain有點小佩服,有些觀點彆人寫齣來你覺得理所當然,但自己寫不齣的

評分論點:貧睏是製度問題(失業)、不婚是傢族問題(糊口綫上鬥爭)、福利救濟成早孕幫凶、女性傢眷最喜歡互相照顧孩子:“咱親戚!”其實,這幫人離瞭親戚活不下去。談的是黑人,卻也反映瞭美國社會個人主義和集體生活的張力。個人缺乏經濟獨立的條件,哪兒來的挑三撿四東奔西跑。窮黑人隻好stuck啦
