Many scholars see caregiving relationships as based on mutual dependency or interdependency. Extensively cited notions of the 'global care chain' or 'international division of reproductive labour' have prepared the ground for analysis of global interdependencies in several domains. Souralová considers caregiving to be a formative activity that establishes ties between the concerned actors, whose subjectivities are mutually shaped in the daily practice of caregiving. With its stress on mutuality in care work, this book illuminates the new forms of interpersonal, interethnic, and intergenerational relationships and highlights the processes in which kinship ties are negotiated and reproduced.
