Description
Parenting Culture Studies, now in its second edition, explores how parenting reflects broader social trends. The authors examine the main aspects of parenting and their critical evaluation over time.
The book revisits key phenomena such as intensive parenting and politics around parenting, as well as controversies like policing pregnant women's bodies and parental determinism. New to this edition is a third part discussing parents' experiences with risk assessment, school closures, contradictory care arrangements, and vaccine hesitancy during the COVID-19 pandemic.
With updates throughout, including new literature that has built on the original publication, this volume offers a comprehensive analysis of parenting culture and its ongoing evolution.
