Most social scientific work on intimate relationships has assumed
a monogamous structure, or has considered anything other than
monogamy only in the context of 'infidelity'. Yet, in recent
years there has been a growing interest among researchers and the
public in exploring various patterns of intimacy that involve
open non-monogamy. This volume gathers contributions from
academics, activists, and practitioners throughout the world to
explore non-monogamous relationships. Featuring both empirical
and theoretical pieces, contributors examine the history and
cultural basis of various forms of non-monogamy, experiences of
non-monogamous living, psychological understandings of
relationship patterns, language and emotion, the discursive
construction of mono-normativity as well as issues of race,
class, disability, sexuality and gender. This volume will be of
interest to academics and practitioners working in the social
sciences and anyone who is seeking greater insight into the
intricacies of non-monogamous relationships.
