Similarly, mechanisms of socialisation such as religion, capitalism and the law require context-specific application to the notion of polygyny. This book interrogates the construction of gender identity in adults raised in Zulu polygynous families in the Hammarsdale area in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It highlights the complexities of gender identities as participants negotiate between modern, constitutional, individual freedoms and patriarchal, cultural, communal customs and traditions. The themes also point to the contestation between individuality and collectivism in the construction of gender identity within polygynous families in Zulu culture. The South African Constitution guarantees gender equality and individual rights and freedoms for its citizens, yet customary law practices, such as polygyny, appear to contravene these principles. The participants reveal that although women and men experience different influences, they cite similar prevalent factors that have a bearing on their gender identity construction, namely, gender role socialisation, naming practices and the principle of seniority 606 $aCustomary law$zKwaZulu-Natal (South Africa) 606 $aMarriage (Customary law)$zKwaZulu-Natal (South Africa) 606 $aMarriage customs and rites$zKwaZulu-Natal (South Africa) 606 $aPolygyny$zKwaZulu-Natal (South Africa) 606 $aPolygyny$xReligious aspects 606 $aZulu (African people) 607 $aSouth Africa$zKwaZulu-Natal$2fast 615 0$aCustomary law 615 0$aMarriage (Customary law) 615 0$aMarriage customs and rites 615 0$aPolygyny 615 0$aPolygyny$xReligious aspects 615 0$aZulu (African people). 676 $a306.8423089639860684 700 $aMkhize$b Zamambo V$01729358 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bNZ-WeVUL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910838318303321 996 $aPolygyny and Gender$94139125 997 $aUNINA
