Each of these events has been the subject of considerable study, but in The Politics of Parenthood, Laurel Elder and Steven Greene look at the political impact of one of life's most challenging adult experiences—having and raising children. Using a comprehensive array of both quantitative and qualitative analyses, Elder and Greene systematically reveal for the first time how the very personal act of raising a family is also a politically defining experience, one that shapes the political attitudes of Americans on a range of important policy issues. They document how political parties, presidential candidates, and the news media have politicized parenthood and the family over not just one election year, but the last several decades. They conclude that the way the themes of parenthood and the family have evolved as partisan issues at the mass and elite levels has been driven by, and reflects fundamental shifts in, American society and the structure of the American family.ParenthoodUnited StatesFamiliesUnited StatesParenthoodUnited StatesPublic opinionFamiliesUnited StatesPublic opinionUnited StatesPolitics and governmentParenthoodFamiliesParenthoodPublic opinion.FamiliesPublic opinion.306.874Elder Laurel884263Greene Steven1803898MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910958277903321The politics of parenthood4351673UNINA04988nam 22007815 450 991048431320332120251226202911.03-540-87473-910.1007/978-3-540-87473-7(CKB)1000000000490608(SSID)ssj0000317929(PQKBManifestationID)11231712(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000317929(PQKBWorkID)10308699(PQKB)10884784(DE-He213)978-3-540-87473-7(MiAaPQ)EBC3063456(MiAaPQ)EBC6691469(Au-PeEL)EBL6691469(PPN)129062871(EXLCZ)99100000000049060820100301d2008 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtccrGeographic Information Science 5th International Conference, GIScience 2008, Park City, UT, USA, September 23-26, 2008, Proceedings /edited by Thomas J.

The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 77 submissions. Among the traditional topics addressed are spatial relations, geographic dynamics, and spatial data types. A significant number of papers deal with navigation networks, location-based services, and spatial information query and retrieval. Geo-sensors, mobile computing, and Web mapping rank among the important new directions.Information Systems and Applications, incl.
