Utilizing a framework from the philosophy of cognitive science that argues for a collective or distributed account of affect, I argue that this model suitably explains the ways affective exchanges take place in adoptee communities. Even though these exchanges are largely asynchronous and remote, there is evidence that emotional contagion and entrainment—features that mark collective and distributed theories of affect—can be sustained online. Turning to my own adoption narrative and how my identity as an adoptee has shaped and been shaped by my experiences in \"Adoptionland,\" I provide further evidence for the model I am proposing for understanding adoptee communities online. Finally, I argue that taking the framework I've provided seriously would have important potential benefits for improving mental healthcare and other social support systems for adult adoptees.","PeriodicalId":140707,"journal":{"name":"Adoption & Culture","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126948690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Hijra Representations in Bollywood: Adoption and Legal Discourses","authors":"Rukhsar Hussain","doi":"10.1353/ado.2021.0026","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/ado.2021.0026","url":null,"abstract":"abstract:The paper examines the theme of adoption and motherhood in hijra representations in mainstream Indian cinema. Hijras are members of a nonbinary community in regions of South Asia who are born as males but identify mostly as females or third gender. The community is one of the most visible sexual minorities in the subcontinent and can be easily located on the streets across the country, begging, mostly, at traffic signals. They continue to live on the fringes of the mainstream society because they have no other occupation than prostitution and begging. They have also long suffered from misrepresentation in the mainstream culture which obstructs their social integration.The paper argues that adoption and motherhood, which are central to hijra identities, and also to the formation of hijra kinship ties, are almost always presented as \"unnatural\" and criminal in the Indian mainstream commercial films, demonizing the community. In an in-depth analysis of two Indian films, Darmiyaan and Tamanna, I argue that they offer sustained representations of hijra kinship ties, focusing on key themes of adoption and nonbiological parenting, and challenge the conventional idea of \"motherhood.\" Following in the footsteps of scholars such as David Eng, Kim Park Nelson, and Peggy Phelan, this paper critically studies hijra initiation practice with an intersectional lens in order to expose the structural inequalities of race, class, and religion in hijra filmic representations. Thus, this paper starts a conversation in the area of queer, non-cis, community-based \"adoption\" from the Indian subcontinent.","PeriodicalId":140707,"journal":{"name":"Adoption & Culture","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127355203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The book is an exploration of the way that adoption and feminism should be linked in the literature about adoption and serves as a call to action for those who research and study adoption as a cultural phenomenon.

The first three articles in this collection analyze the images of adoption in wellknown cultural artifacts: the Jurassic Park movies; three popular movies, largely geared to children, that portray the reunion of adoptees and biological parents in American Asian adoptions; and the depiction of motherhood, adoptive and otherwise, in the HBO series based on a contemporary and popular work of fiction, Celeste Ng's Little Fires Everywhere. Alice Diver uses the law and literature to discusses the treatment of children produced by artificial technology, juxtaposing recent legal decisions that leave some children stateless and without rights with literary works that treat children with dubious, \"unnatural\" origins. Finally, Rukhsar Hussain discusses the derogatory representation in Indian Cinema of the hijra, nonbinary-identifying members of communities in South Asia.","PeriodicalId":140707,"journal":{"name":"Adoption & Culture","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123012312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

"Monstrous Othering": The Gothic Nature of Origin-Tracing in Law and Literature “怪异的他者”:法律与文学溯源的哥特本质

Diver","doi":"10.1353/ado.2021.0025","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/ado.2021.0025","url":null,"abstract":"abstract:Much Gothic literature touches upon the concepts of familial injustice, disconnect from origin, and ill-treatment of the \"monstrously-othered\" or abandoned child. Certain works of fiction mirror those judicial discourses that involve contentious issues of unknown ancestry, not least anonymous gamete donation and cross-border surrogacy. Three novels in particular see their characters rendered monstrous by law, society, or unwritten norms of behavior: the clones of Katzuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go, the unnamed monster in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, and Emily Brontë's Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights, share common features and horrific fates of endless exile. They are abused largely because of their genetic losses and unknowable origins, and thereby doomed to undertake fruitless quests and suffer flawed or fatal reunions. Dehumanizing policies of disenfranchisement enable or perpetuate such inequalities, but are justified in law, to preserve social order. In courtrooms too, there is a judicial need to balance conflicting human rights and interests: privacy, identity, family life. A \"monstrous othering\" can thus result, permanently exiling certain individuals from fundamental human rights protections. This is so despite the principles of child welfare paramountcy and best interests, not least where cross-border surrogacy, contact vetoes and sealed birth records are involved.","PeriodicalId":140707,"journal":{"name":"Adoption & Culture","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122323267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
