Global Masculinities,2946-38669781137595270 1137595272 Includes bibliographical references and index.Both research and policy on balancing work and family life have tended to focus on mothers' lives. There has been a general lack of comparative research to the complex intersection between old and new forms of masculinity; and between fatherhood, work-life balance, gender relations and children's well-being. As a result, men's fathering roles and their struggle with work-life balance have often been neglected. These cultural challenges should be better theorized within family and social policy research. This volume examines how fathers fulfill their roles both within the family and at work and what institutional support could be of most benefit to them in combining these roles.Global Masculinities,2946-3866SexSociologySocial groupsIndustrial sociologyFeminismFeminist theoryGender StudiesSociology of Family, Youth and AgingSociology of WorkFeminism and Feminist TheorySex.Sociology.Social groups.Industrial sociology.Feminism.Feminist theory.Gender Studies.Sociology of Family, Youth and Aging.Sociology of Work.Feminism and Feminist Theory.306.3/6Ruspini Elisabettaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut438151Crespi Isabellaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910293152303321Balancing Work and Family in a Changing Society2534524UNINA
