Routledge Absent Fathers? by Routledge - Social Policy and Sociology Text

While much has been written about lone mothers, the discussion regarding non-resident fathers remains limited. Absent Fathers addresses this gap by exploring the role of men and masculinities in modern society. This text provides a necessary perspective on family dynamics and social structure. Developed from research by one of the UK's top social policy units, the content is based on results from the ESRC Programme on Population and Household Change. This academic foundation makes it a reliable resource for those studying the complexities of family breakdown and social policy. This book serves as an essential reading tool for undergraduates specializing in social policy. It also offers valuable insights for professionals working in fields related to child support and family stability. By examining the presence and absence of fathers, this work contributes to the growing body of literature on men's roles in the changing landscape of the modern household.
