In early modern Sweden, if a man and his deceased wife´s sister were found guilty of engaging in sexual intercourse they would be sentenced to death by beheading. Today the same relationship is not even illegal. Covering the period 1680-1940, this book analyses both incest crimes and applications for dispensation to marry, revealing the norms underpinning Swedish society's shifting attitudes to incestuous relations and comparing them with developments in other European countries. It demonstrates that, even though the debate on incest has been dominated by religious, moral, and - in due course - medical notions, the values that actually determined the outcome of incest cases were frequently of quite a different character.-- Provided by publisher.

Comment penser la violence incestueuse ? Peut-on prévenir sa répétition ? Peut-on restaurer les liens familiaux ? L’inceste renvoie à l’impensable, à l’innommable, à l’indi­cible. C’est le symptôme d’une organisation familiale et sociale où règne la confusion entre générations, entre l’intime, le privé et le public. L’inceste confronte aussi les professionnels à la sidération et à l’angoisse alors que la pensée se trouble, et que le symbo­lique est défaillant. Le fil rouge de cet ouvrage est la déconstruction des scènes familiales de l’inceste dans une perspective clinique des liens de filiation et d’affiliation. Quel cadre pluriel pour un travail de différenciation et d’individuation chez les victimes et les auteurs d’inceste ? Quelle place occupe le juridique ? Différents dispositifs : psychothérapies de groupe, thérapie familiale, accompagne­ment éducatif institutionnel, médiations à la créativité tentent de libérer la parole … Comment restaurer les liens ? Comment aider ces femmes et ces hommes à se libérer de l’emprise d’une histoire de famille incestueuse ?

"Three hundred years ago in Sweden, if a man and his late wife’s sister had sex they ran the risk of being executed. The relationship was defined as an incestuous one, and reprieves were rare. Today, Swedish legislation is among the most liberal in the world. How can such a radical change be accounted for? The earliest prohibitions against incest came from the Bible, which is why biological kinship and kinship based on marriage were held to be equivalent. Consequently, incest prohibitions around 1700 covered many more relationship categories than exist today. Right up to the late nineteenth century, most incest crimes corresponded to voluntary unions between two adults who were not related by blood. Analysing both incest crimes and applications for dispensation to marry from 1680 to 1940, this book reveals the norms underpinning Swedish society’s shifting attitudes to incestuous relations, while considering developments in relation to other European countries. Making a remarkable contribution to social and legal history, 'Incest in Sweden' reveals that, while the debate on incest has historically been dominated by religious, moral and – in due course – medical notions, the values that actually determined the outcome of incest cases were frequently of a quite different character." -- Publisher..

Es un ensayo interdisciplinario sobre la representación de la crisis de la familia en el nuevo cine latinoamericano de la primera década de este Siglo. La representación cinematográfica de la crisis de la familia se analiza como una alegoría de la crisis política y cultural producida por la transición violenta desde una modernidad no cumplida a la nueva etapa del capitalismo globalizado que en la región se establece con el uso de la fuerza institucionalizada en términos de dictaduras militares, guerras sucias y luchas de liberación nacional debido a la falta de las condiciones económicas, políticas, sociales o culturales necesarias para una transición pacífica como es el caso de los países altamente industrializados. Cada capítulo presenta diferentes aspectos de la tensión entre nuestro pasado reciente/trauma histórico y las relaciones de género, etnicidad o estrato social en el contexto de la crisis de la sociedad patriarcal, simbolizado en la representación de la familia, y que culmina en la mayoría de los casos en incesto o parricidio simbólico o real como un síntoma y gesto crítico que nos alerta de los cambios de la sociedad contemporánea invadida por el trauma que exige una negociación de los roles tradicionales en una nueva sociedad de corte postmoderno y globalizado.
