Families We Need

Disability, Abandonment, and Foster Care's Resistance in Contemporary China

Beschreibung

Families We Need is an ethnography of the temporary, yet transformative relationships between disenfranchised, older foster mothers and disabled, orphaned foster children in China, and the power of these seemingly marginal relationships to confront state power, disrupt intercountry adoption, and challenge our assumptions about the limits of foster kinship.
