POPULATION AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 34(1): 19–49 (MARCH 2008) 19 Variations in Kinship Networks Across Geographic and Social Space MICHAEL MURPHY FAMILIES FORM ONE of the most important domains in people’s lives. At the individual level, having good social networks, of which relatives are a major component, is highly beneficial for well-being. At the macro-level, levels of contact with kin is a key component of family systems and frequently used as an indicator of wider social variables such as degree of modernization. Kin contact can involve a range of interactions, ranging from “just keeping in touch” to regular family events and provision of care. Such contact with people outside one’s household reflects choices about whether to meet or telephone, whereas other indicators of family systems such as levels of cores- idence with kin do not necessarily reflect preferences, but may be due to lack of suitable housing or the ability to maintain a separate household.

Individuals move through a variety of life course states, and many of the relationships made remain critical long after they were formed. Views about the importance and future direction of kinship roles and trends in contemporary societies are highly divergent. A longstanding tradi- tion in the sociological literature, from Le Play and Durkheim through Parsons to Giddens (2005, p. 212), interprets modern societies as having replaced or reduced many of the family’s former roles in such areas as employment, education, child socialization, and welfare activities and views these trends as accelerating with globalization. Sociological functionalist theorists argued that as the economy became increasingly removed from family activities, isolated nuclear family organi-
