The Myth of Attachment Theory A Critical Understanding for Multicultural Societies

The Myth of Attachment Theory A Critical Understanding for Multicultural Societies

The Myth of Attachment Theory confronts the uncritical acceptance of attachment theory – challenging its scientific basis and questioning the relevance in our modern superdiverse and multicultural society – and exploring the central concern of how children and their way of forming relationships differ from each other. In this book Heidi Keller examines diverse multicultural societies proposing that a single doctrine cannot best serve all children and families. Drawing on cultural psychological and anthropological research this challenging volume respects cultural diversity as the human condition and demonstrates how the wide heterogeneity of children’s worlds must be taken seriously to avoid painful or unethical consequences that might result from the application of attachment theory in different fields. The book explores attachment theory as a scientific construct deals with attachment theory as the foundation of early education specifies the dimensions that need to be considered for a culturally conscious approach and finally approaches ethical problems which result from the universality claim of attachment theory in different areas. This book employs multiple and mixed methods while also going beyond critical analysis of theory to offer insight into the implications of the unquestioning acceptance of this theory in such areas as childhood interventions diagnosis of attachment security international intervention programs and educational settings. This volume will be a crucial read for scholars and researchers in developmental educational and clinical psychology as well as educators teachers-in-training and other professionals working with children and their families. | The Myth of Attachment Theory A Critical Understanding for Multicultural Societies

Mothering Babies in Domestic Violence Beyond Attachment Theory

Mothering Babies in Domestic Violence Beyond Attachment Theory

This unique book offers an innovative feminist critique of attachment theory that offers an alternative understanding of relationships between women and their babies in domestic violence. Fiona Buchanan identifies a way forward for working with women babies and people who have grown up with domestic violence focusing on strengths not deficits. In doing so she raises new possibilities for work with women and babies in other situations where trauma impacts on their relationships. In line with feminist traditions of listening to the voices of women this book theorizes from research which asks women who birthed and mothered babies in domestic violence about their experiences. The research identifies that women respond with protectiveness when faced with sustained hostility from their partners and protected their babies in many ways not recognised by attachment theorists. However sustained hostility often targets the growing relationship between women and their babies and limits space for the woman and baby to peacefully relate. This book offers deep insights and a new model for working with women babies and those who have grown up with violence based on understanding the context of sustained hostility appreciating women’s protectiveness and expanding space where women and babies can relate. The author calls for practitioners across health and welfare settings to explore the situations in which women mother; women’s protective thoughts feelings and actions and how they find space to relate. This is the ideal resource for researchers policy makers and practitioners as well as women and people who grew up with domestic violence. | Mothering Babies in Domestic Violence Beyond Attachment Theory

Mary Ainsworth’s work on the importance of maternal sensitivity for the development of infant attachment security is widely recognized as one of the most revolutionary and influential contributions to developmental psychology in the 20th century.

The chapters in this volume collectively reveal not only the origins and depth of her conceptualizations and the originality of her assessment methods but also the many different ways in which her ideas about maternal sensitivity continue to inspire innovative research and clinical applications in Western and non-Western cultures.
