The findings call into question the idea that the more modern society became, the less kin mattered. Rather, the opposite happened. During \"modernization,\" close kin developed a flexible set of exchanges, passing marriage partners, godparents, political favors, work contacts, and financial guarantees back and forth. These new kinship systems were fundamental for class formation. The author also repositions women in the center of the political culture of alliances.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51928046338336,"sku":"NEW0521586577","price":61.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/kinship-in-neckarhausen-1700-1870-0521586577","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
