Description

Explore a deep academic examination of the black family through this scholarly volume from Routledge. Since the 1960s, the discussion surrounding the condition and characteristics of black families has been shaped by intense debates, including the Moynihan Report and the culture of poverty theses. For decades, a recurring theme suggested that black families were pathological, a concept that heavily influenced political debate and public policy despite inconclusive and contradictory research. This book provides a necessary shift in perspective. By presenting alternative approaches to understanding the unique characteristics of black families, it moves beyond outdated labels. This volume serves as an extension of a special issue from The Review of Black Political Economy, offering readers a rigorous look at the sociological and political realities that shape these family structures. It is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals interested in anthropology, sociology, and political economy.
