Description:
In a dozen revised versions of presentations to an April 1997 conference in York, British sociologists ponder on the form and content of a range of relationships, including heterosexual, same-sex, parental and step-parental, kin, and intergenerational. They emphasize the processes in intimate relationships by which latent power both becomes visible and may be resisted, but also look at the mechanisms by which such relationships are constructed and adjusted, and the impact on them of legislation and the state.
