When women in politics interact with reporters, opponents, and constituents, they are forced to confront their parental status. If they have children, they are questioned about their competence in both their public and private lives. If they don’t, they face criticism for not understanding or relating to key policy domains. This “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” conundrum raises difficult questions about the intersection of gender, parental status, and politics. Mothers and Others examines key areas of citizen engagement with the political system – political careers, the media, and political behaviour – to argue that being a parent is a gendered political identity that influences how, why, and to what extent women (and men) engage with politics. The first major comparative analysis of the role of parenthood in politics, Mothers and Others makes important observations about what we know and what we still need to find out.

Do Men Mother

The second edition of Andrea Doucet's Do Men Mother? builds upon the award winning first edition to further illuminate fathers' candid reflections on caring and the intricate social worlds that men and women inhabit as they 'love and let go' of their children. Including interviews with over one hundred fathers - from truck drivers to insurance salesmen, physicians to artists - Doucet illustrates how men are breaking the mould of traditional parenting models. This edition expands her argument wider and deeper, building on changes to the theoretical work that informs the field, her own intellectual trajectory, and the fieldwork of revisiting six fathers and their partners a decade after her initial interviews. She continues to examine key questions such as: What leads fathers to trade earning for caring? How do fathers navigate through the 'maternal worlds' of mothers and infants? Are men mothering or are they redefining fatherhood? In asking and unravelling the question 'Do men mother?' this study tells a compelling story about Canadian parents radically re-envisioning child care and domestic responsibilities in the twenty-first century.

Regards sur les hommes et les masculinités 2e édition

Aujourd’hui, on parle des hommes en rapport avec certains problèmes sociaux qui font la manchette, tels que la violence conjugale, la rupture du lien paternel et le suicide. Ou encore on revisite les stéréotypes masculins dans les téléromans et les publicités. Toutes ces nouvelles représentations trouvent écho dans la société, alors que plusieurs hommes s’interrogent sur eux-mêmes comme hommes ou conjoints, comme pères ou fils, et que, par ailleurs, les femmes se questionnent et questionnent leurs conjoints, leurs pères et leurs fils. Comment y voir clair ? Issue du Pôle d’expertise et de recherche en santé et bien-être des hommes, cette nouvelle édition constitue une œuvre francophone majeure représentant une synthèse des connaissances produites jusqu’à maintenant sur les réalités masculines. Elle vise à enrichir les connaissances théoriques et à soutenir les pratiques de ceux et celles qui, dans leur quotidien, côtoient des hommes en détresse, ainsi que les formateurs dans ce domaine.
