research and theoretical articles (maximum 6000 words) and short commentaries
and ‘opinion pieces’ (maximum 1500 words), which address these questions,
particularly as they pertain to the multiple familial and parenting arrangements

carers, as families of origin, through supportive networks and extended familial
relations, through ‘biology’, through partnership, through choice, through
politics. All article submissions will be peer-reviewed and commentaries will be
reviewed by the Guest Editor and the Editor of <I
