Definición

  • Matrifocality is a descriptor of an anthropological term, matrifocal, and literally means “mother focused.” The term most often describes a kinship system that is matriarchal or female-headed in nature, e.g., the matrifocal family. Matrifocal families are characteristic of several cultures, including the Javanese, the Igbo of West Africa, and the Mescalero Apaches. [Source: Encyclopedia of Motherhood; Matrifocality]
