 After having drawn attention to a new perspective on notions of doing and kinning, let me clarify my understanding of the business family, which rests on two premises. On the one hand, this includes Carsten’s (2000) notion of relatedness, and on the other, Yanagisako’s (2018, 2019) concept of the kinship enterprise. Consequently, the efforts for conceptualizing fam- ily businesses in this volume focus on the processes of how the business family is produced and reproduced, and a relation to the business is upheld. To be sure, kin relations are still a very important basis (Kleve et al., 2020; McKinnon, 2016) for establishing binding ties and enduring bonds of relatedness. On the other hand, however, relatedness is often produced in very flexible ways. Let me add here that I differentiate between the nuclear family and the business family, although there may be considerable overlap in some cases. Moreover, let me emphasize that an understanding of the nuclear family as such does not necessarily rest on any reference to the family firm. In contrast, the business family is based on forms of relatedness, which are construed in direct relation to the family firm, its products, its origins, its founders, the family assets, the employees and other persons from the business family.
