Chinese Fatherhood, Gender and Family - Father Mission (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2017): Mario Liong Chinese Fatherhood, Gender and Family - Father Mission (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2017)
Mario Liong
R2,966 Discovery Miles 29 660 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book is about how Chinese men make sense of and practise fatherhood within the context of changing gender conventions and socio-cultural conditions. Liong analyses data from participant observations at a men's centre, focus groups, and in-depth interviews, to assess the subjective experience and identities of Chinese fathers in Hong Kong, from a gender perspective. His findings show that economic provision, education, and marriage are the three "natural" and "normal" domains of paternity. Not being able to fulfil these requirements is a threat to fathers' masculinity, yet is also an opportunity for fathers to reflect upon these accepted conventions. In order to compensate, these men typically develop a closer and more caring relationship with their children, however these fathers still struggle with feelings of inferiority.
