  • Kin Relationships
    In H. T. Reis & S. Sprecher (Eds.), Encyclopedia of human relationships (pp. 951-954). Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage. Kin Relationships Kin relationships are traditionally defined as ties based on blood and marriage. They include lineal generational bonds (children, parents, grandparents, and great- grandparents), collateral bonds (siblings, cousins, nieces and nephews, and aunts and uncles), and ties with in-laws. An often-made distinction is that between primary kin (members of the families of origin and procreation) and secondary kin (other family members). The former are what people generally refer to as “immediate family,” and the latter are generally labeled “extended family.” Marriage, as a principle of kinship, differs from blood in that it can be terminated. Given the potential for marital break-up, blood is recognized as the more important principle of kinship. This entry questions the appropriateness of traditional definitions of kinship for “new” family forms, describes distinctive features of kin relationships, and explores varying perspectives on the functions of kin relationships. Questions About Definition Changes over the last thirty years in patterns of family formation and dissolution have given rise to questions about the definition of kin relationships. Guises of kinship have emerged to which the criteria of blood and marriage do not apply. Assisted reproduction is a first example. Births resulting from infertility treatments such as gestational surrogacy and in vitro fertilization with ovum donation challenge the biogenetic basis for kinship. A similar question arises for adoption, which has a history 2 going back to antiquity. Partnerships formed outside of marriage are a second example. Strictly speaking, the family ties of nonmarried cohabitees do not fall into the category of kin, notwithstanding the greater acceptance over time of consensual unions both formally and informally.

  • Dna by the Entirety
    DNA BY THE ENTIRETY Natalie Ram The law fails to accommodate the inconvenient fact that an individual’s identifiable genetic information is involuntarily and immutably shared with her close genetic relatives. Legal institutions have established that individuals have a cognizable interest in control- ling genetic information that is identifying to them. The Supreme Court recognized in Maryland v. King that the Fourth Amendment is impli- cated when arrestees’ DNA is analyzed, and the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act protects individuals from genetic discrimination in the employment and health-insurance markets. But genetic infor- mation is not like other forms of private or personal information because it is shared—immutably and involuntarily—in ways that are identifying of both the source and that person’s close genetic relatives. Standard approaches to addressing interests in genetic information have largely failed to recognize this characteristic, treating such infor- mation as individualistic. While many legal frames may be brought to bear on this problem, this Article focuses on the law of property. Specifically, looking to the law of tenancy by the entirety, this Article proposes one possible frame- work for grappling with the overlapping interests implicated in genetic identification and analysis. Tenancy by the entirety, like interests in shared identifiable genetic information, calls for the difficult task of conceptualizing two persons as one. The law of tenancy by the entirety thus provides a useful analytical framework for considering how legal institutions might take interests in shared identifiable genetic infor- mation into account. This Article examines how this framework may shape policy approaches in three domains: forensic identification, genetic research, and personal genetic testing.

Family Formation and the Home Pamela Laufer-Ukeles' & Shelly Kreiczer-Levj INTRODUCTION' In this article, we consider the relevance of home sharing in family formation. When couples or groups of persons are recognized as families, they are afforded significant benefits and given certain obligations by the law.4 Families have their own category of laws, rights, and obligations.' Currently, the law of family formation and recognition is in a state of flux. Although in some respects the defining legal lines of the family have been well settled for centuries around blood and the formal legal ties of marriage and parenthood, in significant ways, the family form has been fundamentally altered over the past few decades.

  • The Reproductive Decision-Making of Women with Mitochondrial Disease
    Julia Tonge Uncertain Existence: The reproductive decision-making of women with Mitochondrial Disease. Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Neuroscience, Newcastle University October 2017 Abstract The aim of this thesis was to understand the process of reproductive decision- making in women with maternally inherited mitochondrial disease. It demonstrates the uncertainty fundamental to the experiences of women with mitochondrial DNA mutations (a subsection of women with mitochondrial disease). This uncertainty manifests in the personal accounts of their condition, as well as in relation to their reproductive decision-making. Twenty semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with eighteen women with mitochondrial DNA mutations, sampled via their connection to a mitochondrial disease specialist service in North East England. Retrospective, prospective and hypothetical questions were utilised in data collection. The data generated from the study, which was informed by constructivist grounded theory, can be organised into two central areas, both of which can be related back to uncertainty. The first area relates to how women harbour the desire for a healthy biologically related child. The second area features decision-making, which within the context of maternally inherited mitochondrial disease, is essentially the process by which women consolidate their desires for healthy children, and how they negotiate risk. The women’s accounts highlight social aspects of uncertainty that features in their reproductive decision-making, in contrast to the current literature that focuses on more clinical aspects of uncertainty. In addition, they also demonstrate how educational and employment institutions struggle to manage the uncertainty inherent in mitochondrial disease.

BRUMBAUGH KINSHIP ANALYSIS : METHODS, RESULTS,AND THE SIRIONO DEMONSTRATION CASE A likely exarnple of 'cultural devolution', the Sirionó hunters and gatherers of Bolivia were best known for the whistle-talk they have developed until Needham (1962) drew attention to their kinship system, which he cited as a rare case of matrilineal prescriptive alliance. His interpretation was subsequently weakened as it becarne clear that there is no evidence in the Sirionó ethnography (Holmberg 1950) for social correlates which are an essential part of the 'prescriptive alliance' scheme (Needham 1962, 1964). -Meanwhile Scheffler and Lounsbury had chosen the Sirionó system as the demonstration case for a new approach to kinship, called 'trans- formational analysis', which aims to discover the underlying cognitive structure of the system through semantic analysis. The Sirionó case study (1971) contrasted the results of this method with the failure of Needharn's model; and since prescriptive alliance theory itself is Need- ham's modified version of Lévi-Strauss' kinship theory (which I will cal1 'structural' theory), the case seemed to vindicate their semantic approach where 'structuralism' had already proved inadequate.

  • Call for Evidence Replies for Mitochondrial Review.Pdf
    14th of March 2011 Mitochondria Review, Policy Team, HFEA, 21 Bloomsbury Street, London. WC1B 3HF. Dear Sir/Madam, Call for evidence: Scientific review of the methods to avoid mitochondrial transfer At a previous Scientific and Clinical Advances Advisory Committee (SCAAC) meeting on the 13th of May 2010, the production of (1) pronuclear transfer-derived human embryos reaching the blastocyst stage containing on average <2 % mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) carry-over from the original zygote and (2) spindle transfer-derived monkeys exhibiting normal development, was reported. The publication relating to the latter, reported no mtDNA carry-over1. 1. I would like to draw the core panel’s attention to the numerous somatic and embryonic cell nuclear transfer animal studies which show that mtDNA carry-over from the original cells to embryos, foetuses and offspring is a regular phenomenon2-12. Somatic and embryonic cell nuclear transfer involves transferring a nucleus from a somatic or an embryonic cell, respectively, and placing into an oocyte that has had its nucleus removed, making the techniques analogous to that of pronuclear and spindle transfer. Indeed, mtDNA carry-over has been detected in 165 out of 204 (~ 54 %) cases, with up to 59 % mtDNA carry-over reported in one offspring3. As this amount was far in excess that present immediately after the somatic cell nuclear transfer, the authors suggested the mtDNA of the original somatic cell had been preferentially amplified during development3. While these studies involved animals (not humans), transferring nuclei from somatic/embryonic cells with healthy mitochondria (not pronuclei or nuclear DNA from embryos or oocytes, respectively, with unhealthy mitochondria), they raise the strong possibility, that despite best efforts, the unhealthy mitochondria will be carried over and preferentially amplified to levels that could cause mitochondrial disease in “mitochondrial-replacement” babies.

  • Families and the Church in the 21St Century: the Meaning of Kinship Bonds
    Families and the church in the 21st century: the meaning of kinship bonds REVISED VERSION May 2014 1 FAMILIES AND THE CHURCH IN THE 21ST CENTURY: THE MEANING OF KINSHIP BONDS 1. Introduction The realities of family relationships within Scottish society have changed profoundly over the past few decades. This report seeks to encourage the church to be aware of the effects these changes may have on the communities which we serve. Over the past half century there has been a dramatic change in family structure. There is a trend away from marriage resulting in a minority of people in Scotland being married. (The 2011 census showed that just over 45% of people aged 16 and over in Scotland are married). About a third of children in Scotland are in single parent families. Other family structures include complex step- parent relationships and there is an increasing reliance on grandparents for day to day childcare, not just occasional babysitting. The expanding availability of methods of assisted conception means that children born as a result of these methods may have parents responsible for their care who are distinct from their biological parents. Meanwhile, children currently offered for adoption are no longer typically healthy infants given up at birth, but may be toddlers and older children from homes affected by alcohol, drugs or other complex social problems. 2. ‘A Child of our Own’ Parents’ desire to have children of their own, or at least as much ‘of their own’ as possible, is the driving force behind the growth and popularity of fertility clinics.
