First published in 1998, this insightful volume aims to explore how
90 Indian and African single mothers in 1993 London resolve the
dual challenges of single parenthood and their ethnic origins,
along with a comparison with their British counterparts. This is
one of only a few studies devoted exclusively to Asian lone mothers
in Britain and sheds light on the problems encountered by a group
largely ignored by researchers to date. Rachana Sinha establishes
the impact of differences in family values on issues of marriage,
women's status and lone parenthood and brings to light some of the
mothers' cultural and psychological adjustments to these values and
life in London. The women's experiences of lone parenthood are
shown through their relationships with the father, their family and
friends and with contacts with social organizations. Sinha ends the
study with suggestions and implications for social policy drawn
from her findings.
