Designing Parental Leave Policy – The Norway Model and the Changing Face of Fatherhood: Sociology of Children and Families

Autor Berit Brandth
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 ian 2022
Nordic countries lead the way in facilitating better work-family integration through their design of parental leave policies that encourage men towards life courses with greater care responsibilities. Based on original research, this compelling book offers a novel analysis of the everyday parental practices of fathers and parents in Norway as a way of understanding the workings of labour market and welfare policies, whilst considering how migrant fathers might relate to the expectations such laws generate. The authors showcase how this style of men's care work constitutes a re-gendering of men by promoting 'caring masculinities'.
