It challenges assumptions about a 'crisis of care' unfolding in the wake of the pandemic, showing that care - like other aspects of Tswana kinship - is routinely in crisis, and that the creative ways families navigate such crises make them kin. In Setswana, conflict and crisis are glossed as dikgang, and negotiating dikgang is an ethical practice that generates and reorients kin relations over time. Governmental and non-governmental organisations often misread the creativity of crisis, intervening in ways that may prove more harmful than the problems they set out to solve. Moving between family discussions, community events, and the daily work of orphan care projects and social work offices, Pandemic Kinship provides provocative insights into how we manage change in pandemic times.International African library ;67.FamiliesBotswanaAIDS (Disease)Social aspectsBotswanaEpidemicsSocial aspectsBotswanaCrisis managementBotswanaCommunity lifeBotswanaKinshipBotswanaBotswanaSocial conditions21st centuryAfrican studiessocial and cultural anthropologyFamiliesAIDS (Disease)Social aspectsEpidemicsSocial aspectsCrisis managementCommunity lifeKinship306.85096883HIS001000bisacshReece Koreen M.1977-1253035UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910585956103321Pandemic kinship2905134UNINA
