Resumo

Marilyn Strathern's Afterword reflects on the enduring relevance of anthropological debates surrounding the body. She engages with the preceding articles in the "Key Debates in Anthropology" issue of Body & Society, highlighting the persistent tension between understanding the body as a biological entity and as a socially constructed one. Strathern emphasizes the importance of considering the body's relationality and its embeddedness within specific cultural contexts, arguing against universalizing models. She also discusses the implications of new reproductive technologies and changing kinship structures for anthropological understandings of the body.
