Significant Life

In our contemporary society, the traditional multi-generational family has to adapt and to organize itself around a smaller nucleus: “The nuclear family”. Nowadays, the management of the crises which accompany significant Life Events (such as birth, marriage, retirement, death…) within this new family-system, is refrained by the lack of “relays” which were previously provided by the “enlarged family”. In the absence of available relatives (that is, grandparents, cousins, etc…), it is now the Medical System which is addressed with the demand for help. Using worthy contributions of the systemic theories, the authors analyze the ambiguity of such a request and the paradox underlying it, namely, to take care of a “normal” family crisis. They emphasize two major dangers consisting of the “designation” of an identified patient and the risk of “phagocytosis” of the therapeutic system by the family system.

Abstract In recent years, Singapore made significant reforms towards the establishment of a dedicated family justice system, setting up the Family Justice Courts and enacting new laws to better manage the divorce process and the protection of children. Related policy changes have also been implemented to provide and support families that were previously considered non-traditional and even deviant. Rhetorically, the state, led by the long-ruling People’s Action Party, continues to champion the modern nuclear family with heterosexual marriage at its core as the normal “traditional” form of the family and the bedrock of conservative “Asian values” defining society and politics in Singapore. However, what the judiciary espouse as the new family justice paradigm and the related family justice practices, together with the shifts in social policy towards different family types, are changing the texture of the dominant conservatism rallied by “Asian values” discourse. This article locates and analyses the incipient paradigm shift in the rising pluralism of family forms and the influence of international legal developments in protecting the rights of the child and interventionist family law. By attempting to bridge the Weberian chasm of doing sociology as a vocation and doing politics as a vocation (as an opposition Member of Parliament), I show that the family justice paradigm has opened up the discursive field on the family and produce the politics of ambivalence caught between family justice and Asian family values. I argue for a relational family justice paradigm as a way to move beyond the politics of ambivalence.

Abstract Dorids are one of the largest nudibranch groups, encompassing more than 2000 species. One of the crucial problems with tracing the evolution of dorids is the relationship between cryptobranch dorids (gill cavity present) and phanerobranch dorids (gill cavity absent). Integrative morphological and molecular studies of the enigmatic Japanese dorid species of the cryptobranch genus Cadlina, C. japonica and ‘C.’ sagamiensis, which were collected by the Emperor of Japan (Shōwa era), are presented here for the first time. It is shown that while C. japonica does belong to the Cadlina clade, another Japanese species ‘C.’ sagamiensis is not part of the cryptobranch dorids of the family Cadlinidae, but is related to both the phanerobranch dorid family, Hexabranchidae, and to the cryptobranch family Cadlinellidae stat. nov. A new genus, Showajidaia gen. nov., and new family, Showajidaiidae fam. nov., are proposed for ‘C.’ sagamiensis, and four new species of the genus Cadlina are described based on a dorid-wide molecular phylogenetic analysis, which is the first substantial update of the dorid family system since 2010. Integration of phylogenetic data with an ontogenetic model of dorid evolution suggests that cryptobranch organization can be most reliably assessed as the ancestral state for the majority of dorids.

The first section of the article discusses how and why we went from a relatively undifferentiated family system in the middle of the last century to the current system of diverse family forms. Even conceding that the family system was always less simple than it now appears in hindsight, there is little doubt that we began to depart from the dominant model of the nuclear-family household in the late 1960s. I explain how change is a result of adaptation by individuals and family members to changing economic, demographic, technological, and cultural conditions. The breakdown of the gender-based division of labor was the prime mover in my view. Part two of the article thinks about family complexity in the United States as largely a product of growing stratification. I show how family formation processes associated with low human capital produces complexity over time in family systems, a condition that may be amplified by growing levels of inequality. The last part of the article briefly examines complexity in a changing global context. I raise the question of how complexity varies among economically developed nations with different family formation practices and varying levels of inequality.

- In this work the analysis of the family request coming from a family with a drug addicted daughter is described. Starting from the first ways of interaction between the family and the therapeutic system and from the explicit family request about the symptom, an hypothesis is expressed about the implicit request pertinent to the fragility, the failures and the pain proper of the single person and the entire family system. This hypothesis, already occurred before the first session with the family, drove the therapeutic system to the definition of the diagnosis of the relationships, to the building of a therapeutic contract and to the first therapeutic interventions, everything functional to the implicit request. Working on the implicit request means reading again the family story and enriching it with new meanings, from which the change process can start.

The functioning of the family, interactions between spouses are determined by various factors. Young people bring in to their new family their own experience from the family of origin, the specific characteristics of the personality, and the skills acquired as a result of environmental influences and of their own activity . Each family system is unique because of individual features of individual family members and their mutual influence on each other and the system of the various elements and phenomena affecting the family. The family can be described for the different aspects of its activity, including cohesion, adaptability, identity of family and interpersonal communication. The subject of our research was to determine to what extent the family of origin influences the interactions and the way of communication between spouses. The analysis confirmed the special importance of cohesion in the family of origin for the development of good relations between spouses. It was also found more of the relationships between the specifics of family of origin and the level of commitment and support of women by men.

The Relationship

This article examines, on the basis of landholding patterns, the relationship between the peasant family economy and its family life cycle in the latter half of the Tokugawa era (1603–1867). The analysis is focused on the life-cycle patterns of the stem family. In such a system, the continuation of the family and its assets assumed prime importance while hired labour did not provide a substantial proportion of the workforce on the farm. In fact, the stem family was officially recognized as the lawful family form by the Meiji government, but even in earlier periods the stem family system provided the dominant form. Among the samurai it was always the required form. Among the peasantry, by the early eighteenth century the stem family was the predominant family system.The family system observed here differs in structure from that found in western-European family systems. Even when developmental aspects of European households are discussed, it is the relationship between the simple, nuclear family forms and their economic and social correlates – especially poverty, inheritance and landholdings – that is analysed. How Japanese stem family households operated with respect to landholding and other variables is the main theme of this article. The data come from an agrarian and considerably backward area of north-east Japan where harvest failures were not infrequent even in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.

The Relationship

The displacement of roles in an incestuous family is described. As the daughters grew up, the mother abandoned early her rôle as a mother and nurturing, protective figure. She became one of them, playing the rôle of oldest daughter who, however, had passed the age of being the object of the incestuous wishes of the father (her husband). For his part, the father ignored her as a wife and in many ways this abandonment was a confirmation that she was no longer playing her rôle as spouse. On the other hand, the husband was unable to be a mature, responsible father who could take care of the affective needs of the family, so he gradually looked to his oldest daughter for a love relationship. In doing so he was himself abdicating as a father, perceiving himself as in his daughter's peer group. The second daughter, a pre-pubertal girl, out of jealousy and self-defence, assumed the rôle of ‘guardian’ of her older sister in trying to stop the relationship with the father and eventually refusing the advances he made to her. In the end, she revealed the ‘affair’ that took place between the father and the oldest daughter to the mother. The many changes in family relationships described, arising out of the incestuous relationship, shows that the disturbance in rôles leads in the end to the destruction of the family. Whereas there might have been many reasons to justify incest taboos for millenia past, in contemporary society the major reason justifying this taboo is that tolerance of it leads in fact to the destruction of the nuclear family, which is still, despite many changes, the key group of society.

AbstractThe goal of the article is to describe the theoretical and empirical research of characteristics of families under non-normative crises, having as an example the families of combatants participated in the anti-terrorist operation in Ukraine. The following family crises are discussed: normative crises, as period of transition from one stage of the family life cycle to another and non-normative crises caused by traumatic life events.Research methodology. In order to differentiate more clearly the families of war veterans (those who returned from the anti-terrorist operation zone were examined) and their reactions to the crisis, a sample consisted of chosen nuclear families and the attention was focused on the marital subsystem as a family basis. At the end, survey and psychological testing of war veterans’ wives were conducted; the following diagnostic techniques were used: the author’s questionnaire, FACES-3 method (D.Olson), the questionnaire of family anxiety (E.Eydemiller); the methods of mathematical statistics were used to estimate the data.Research results. The data of the empirical study of the 36 families of war veterans who participated in the military operations in the ATO zone (Ukraine) show that such non-normative family crisis is characterized by family system imbalance and its correction requires adaptation of the family as a whole system to the new reality. Most war veterans’ families undergo series of transformations associated with changes in family structure, communication, significant emotional stress.Discussion. Psychological assistance to war veterans’ families should include psychological learning, prevention and resolving of marital relationship problems, including construction of a new family image, joint life prospects, discussion and transformation of family rules and regulations, development of family cohesion and communication.

ResumoEntre os destaques relacionados ao Direito de Família se encontra, em sua própria titulação, o cerne de todas as discussões dessa decorrentes: a concepção de família. Como uma das ramificações dessa concepção, fruto da nova interpretação sobre o conceito de família, a filiação deixou de ter relação apenas com a consanguinidade, mas adentrou ao âmago das relações sociais de afeto. Compreender a evolução do conceito de família nuclear, suas novas estruturações na contemporaneidade, o conceito de socioafetividade e sua composição no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro é exordio para a apreensão da concepção teórica do Direito de Família em sentido macro, exigindo uma análise aprofundada das transformações decorrentes das vicissitudes do cenário global constituinte das relações e manifestações sociais, geopolíticas e econômicas, bem como um estudo comparado entre teoria e prática. Por meio da pesquisa qualitativa bibliográfica é possível analisar o Direito de Família, sobretudo, no que tange ao reconhecimento de paternidade socioafetiva, tendo por base julgados e legislações contemporâneas, trazendo segurança jurídica na adoção desta prática interpretativa do Direito, que ainda causa dúvidas e controvérsias ideológicas, as quais nos últimos anos têm sido alvo de debates, de reflexões, de avanços e de retrocessos, como todo bom processo de evolução na sociedade. Palavras-chave: Paternidade Socioafetiva. Direito de Família. Conceito de Família. AbstractAmong the highlights related to Family Law, there is in its own title the heart of all discussions arising from it: the family concept. As one of the ramifications of this conception, the result of the new family concept interpretation, affiliation is no longer related only to consanguinity, but has entered the heart of social relationships of affection. Understanding the evolution of the nuclear family concept, its new structures in contemporary times, the socio-affectivity concept and its composition in the Brazilian legal system, is a requirement for understanding the theoretical conception of Family Law in a macro sense, requiring an in-depth analysis of the transformations arising out of the vicissitudes of the global scenario constituting the social, geopolitical and economic relations and manifestations, as well as a comparative study between theory and practice. Through qualitative bibliographic research, it is possible to analyze Family Law, especially regarding the recognition of socio-affective paternity, based on contemporary judgments and legislation, bringing legal certainty in the adoption of this interpretative Law practice, which still causes doubts and ideological controversies, which in recent years has been the subject of debates, reflections, advances and setbacks, like any good evolution process in the society. Keywords: Socio-Affective Fatherhood. Family Right. Family Concept.
