Abstract

CATALAN, Marcos. An essay about multiple parenthood: assessing yesterday, footsteps that will lead to tomorrow. Rev. Fac. Derecho Cienc. Polit. - Univ. Pontif. Bolivar. [online]. 2012, vol.42, n.117, pp.581-620. ISSN 0120-3886.

After revisiting moments that have been erased from memory - in part because of the proud contents of the positivist thinking - and showing that multiple parenthood is a cultural construction that emphasizes the survival of the Eurocentric rationality, this study evaluates if the mentioned family entities - forgotten by the Brazilian civil code, although very alive in reality - can be recognized and supervised by Brazilian Law.

Keywords : Family; multiple parenthood.
