This book discusses and analyses the ways in which fatherhood is in
transition in contemporary and globalized society. The authors
identify and examine fathering practices in relation to hegemonic
and marginal patterns of masculinity, the concept of
heteronormativity and sexuality, and patterns of segregation, class
and national differences. Contextualised in relation to theories of
fatherhood and relevant statistics, Fatherhood in Transition
presents rich empirical material gathered in a number of western
countries. It focuses on key themes including transnational
fathering and families, gay fathers and the virtual global arena of
fatherhood images found on the internet. Containing a number of new
discussions about masculinity and fatherhood, whilst contributing
to and developing existing debates and theories about men,
masculinity, gender and society, this book will be of interest to
students and scholars across a range of disciplines, including
Men's Studies, Gender Studies, Sociology, Psychology, Media Studies
and Cultural Studies.
