Child rearing and cultural diversity. Contributions of anthropology to pediatric practice.

Abstract:

:This article proposes to define child rearing as a social and cultural process that, far from depicting universal and invariable characteristics, shows a huge diversity, mostly linked to the cultural features of families and communities in charge of such process. It has been considered that the anthropological perspective may contribute to understanding such multiple forms of bringing up children that are usually seen at the pediatrician's office and that involve different concepts in relation to childhood, individual, body, motherhood, fatherhood, among others. In turn, this article warns about the risks of restricting the approach to child rearing to a naive cultural relativism that reduces the role of culture to essentials and, on the contrary, points out the need to consider how cultural features intertwine with social inequalities when interpreting such diversity. :En este artículo, se propone situar la crianza infantil como un proceso social y cultural que, lejos de presentar características universales e invariables, muestra una enorme diversidad, ligada, en gran medida, a particularidades culturales de las familias y comunidades que la llevan a cabo. Se considera que la perspectiva de la antropología puede contribuir a comprender esa multiplicidad de formas de criar a los niños que suele emerger en el consultorio del pediatra y que pone en juego diferentes concepciones de niñez, sujeto, cuerpo, maternidad, paternidad, entre otras. A su vez, se advierte acerca de los riesgos de limitar el abordaje de la crianza a un relativismo cultural ingenuo que esencialice el papel de la cultura, y se señala, por el contrario, la necesidad de considerar el modo en que las particularidades culturales se entrelazan con las desigualdades sociales a la hora de interpretar esa diversidad.
