Passing on religion as identity? Anglo-western Islamic children’s literature and Muslim acculturation
Drawing upon a classical cultural studies perspective and employment of participant observation in the socio-cultural scene of Anglo-western Islamic children’s literature in Britain and North America, this paper explores its socio-cultural limits for passing on religion as identity. Generational change influenced by cultural hybridisation amongst migrant Muslims and indigenous Muslims in three Anglo-western countries is surveyed to note distinct …
Changing Fatherhood: An Exploratory Qualitative Study with African and African Caribbean Men in England
This paper presents findings from a qualitative study undertaken with 46 African and African Caribbean men exploring their experiences of fatherhood. Data analysis was informed by Connell’s theoretical work on changing gender relations. Findings indicate that fathers’ lives were mediated by masculinities, racism, gender, migration and generational changes in parenting. Fathers advocated a style of parenting centred on good communication with chil…
Shattered Schemata and Fragmented Identities: Men’s Experiences of Antenatal Genetic Screening in Great Britain
While pregnant women's views about antenatal screening have been widely researched, those of expectant fathers remain underexplored. Interviews were thus conducted with 12 men and 6 women, either during pregnancy or soon after birth. Findings suggested that the men started to construct a schema of their child and a paternal identity even before she/he was born. One of the paternal responsibilities men encountered was to participate in screening. …
We are doing our best’: African and African-Caribbean fatherhood, health and preventive primary care services, in England
Recent policy pronouncements emphasise the importance of engaging fathers with preventive primary care services. However, in England, there is a paucity of literature which examines African and African-Caribbean fathers' experiences of service provision. This paper reports a study that investigated African and African-Caribbean fathers' beliefs about fatherhood, health and preventive primary care services, with the aim of addressing the deficit i…
Men's health, inequalities and policy: Contradictions, masculinities and public health in England
The aim of this paper is to consider ‘New’ Labour's socio-economic and health policies, discuss how they influence preventive health strategies aimed at men, and identify the implications for managers, researchers and practitioners working to improve public health in the primary care sector in England. Policy, theoretical work and empirical research are analysed, critically, to develop the arguments in the paper. Although men may be perceived as …
Masculinities and Vulnerability: The Solitary Discourses and Practices of African-Caribbean and White Working-Class Fathers
There is a developing body of research that investigates the links between masculinities and men's health experiences in the United Kingdom, but the links between social connectedness and the health experiences of men have been a neglected focus for research. Findings were drawn from a parent study that examined fathers' experiences of health and social connectedness, but findings presented in this article were unforeseen. Specifically, findings …
