This collection defines the field of maternal studies in Australia
for the first time. Leading motherhood researchers explore how
mothering has evolved across Australian history as well as the joys
and challenges of being a mother today. The contributors cover
pregnancy, birth, relationships, childcare, domestic violence, time
use, work, welfare, policy and psychology, from a diverse range of
maternal perspectives. Utilising a matricentric feminist framework,
Australian Mothering foregrounds the experiences, emotions and
perspectives of mothers to better understand how Australian
motherhood has developed historically and contemporaneously.
Drawing upon their combined sociological and historical expertise,
Bueskens and Pascoe Leahy have carefully curated a collection that
presents compelling research on past and present perspectives on
maternity in Australia, which will be relevant to researchers,
advocates and policy makers interested in the changing role of
mothers in Australian society.
