Fathering in India
This book covers the underexplored subject of ‘fathering’ in India. It delves into the shared aspirations of men in India to nurture their children in sensitively attuned ways within the culturally prescriptive context that governs men’s roles as providers and caregivers. This work is based on over two decades of intensive research in India on how different groups construct and experience fatherhood and fathering under changing circumstances. It unmasks the heterogeneity that exists within fathering in India through conversations with fathers across diverse contexts—in privileged economic situations and those in difficult home and family circumstances, having children with disability...
Childhood in South Asia
The book has drawn an interdisciplinary pool of authors, some of whom are natives of South Asian countries and others who have been involved extensively in the region through their affiliations with various international organizations. The book represents children's issues in six South Asian countries: India, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Bangladesh. The authors in the book critically examine issues facing children in South Asia, reveal inadequacies of governmental policies and programs for children, and offer vision for a better childhood for South Asia's children. The United Nation's Convention on the Rights of the Child, UNCRC, serves as a framework for the book.
Family in Transition
This is one of the few interdisciplinary studies on the change-dynamics of family. Family life, undergoing transformation of varying degree as a result of industrialisation, urbanisation and other modernisation forces, has been dealt with from different angles. Besides democracy, power equation and violence in the family, experiences and problems of migrant families, vulnerable families, single women families and dual-earner families have received critical attention. Moreover, family evolution, problems of ageing, impact of environment on family, and portrayal of family in visual media have also been focussed upon. The study combines a theoretical perspective and an empirical treatment.
PARENTING
This caselets-based narrative does not seek to laugh or cry at the predicament of parents or their children. It is also not intended to pass judgments on them. In seeking to understand them and their travails and troubles, care and concerns, joys and sorrows, they become the cornerstone for this book. Are you an anxious, over-concerned parent? Are you overprotective? Are you the slack, indifferent type? Or are you the suspicious or strict parent? It could be that you want to be the best friend to your child. Or you might be a weekend parent or an online virtual parent for your child. Whatever may be the case, this book can provide a thought-provoking insight. Whether you are a student and researcher of human behavior, a parent or caregiver, a teacher or child-rights activist, it is an eye-opener for everyone. The book is a must-read accompaniment to seminars, workshops, brain-storming sessions, focus-group discussions and other technical group activities for parents or children. It is a handbook for all who have once been a child and is now a parent, or wants to be a parent sooner or later!
Father Involvement in Young Children’s Lives
This vital addition to Springer’s ‘Educating the Young Child’ series addresses gaps in the literature on father involvement in the lives of young children, a topic with a fast-rising profile in today’s world of female breadwinners and single-parent households. While the significant body of theoretical understanding and empirical data accumulated in recent decades has done much to characterize the fluidity of evolving notions of fatherhood, the impact of this understanding on policy and legal frameworks has been uneven at an international level. In a field where groups of fathers were until recently marginalized in research, this book adopts a refreshingly inclusive attitude, aiming t...
