Back to the future? What we can learn from the 2nd generation of Social Policy academics
Topics such as climate change, diversity and inequality are likely to dominate the future of Social Policy. This is also a time of a generational change in Social Policy.In this paper I will address the questions of the future challenges for Social Policy by mapping the trajectories of the second generation of Social Policy Academics. There is much to learn from this generation such as the importance of epistemic communities, of mentoring and sus…
Fathers’ Involvement with Their Children Before and After Separation
Changes in fathering over the last decades have led to substantially more involvement of fathers in their children’s upbringing. At the same time, high rates of parental separation and subsequent loss of contact fuel concern about separated fathers’ role in their children’s lives. Underlying such concern is the assumption that separation represents a discontinuity in fathers’ parenting. This paper investigates whether fathers’ pre- and post-separ…
Exploring the concept of intensive parenting in a three-country study
In recent decades there has been growing interest in the concept of intensive parenting. However, the literature is mostly qualitative and based on Anglo-Saxon countries. This raises the question of how best to operationalise the concept in a wider cross-n

Lone Parents
Lone parenthood has become more accepted in many countries but continues to evolve. In addition, the general economic climate, labor market, and social security policies in place to support lone parents, as well as general attitudes toward families and gender norms, continue to affect the lives of many families and children. This entry discusses employment and social security policies and recent developments in the scholarship on lone parents
Lone parents and activation – towards a typology of approaches
There has been an international trend towards activating lone parents, with the United Kingdom being the most recent example. It has been argued that the most common criterion for deciding which lone parents should have to be available for work is the age of the youngest child. However, by examining the activation policies in the OECD countries more closely, a number of criteria used in conjunction with age of the child have been identified, such…
Understanding Employment Barriers for Lone Parents in Great B ritain
A key feature of the previous Labour government in B ritain was the large increase in government‐sponsored research as part of its wider commitment to evidence‐based policy‐making. This article focuses on one area of government‐sponsored research as a case study to examine the relationship between research evidence, policy ideas and programme evaluation. The case study chosen for this article is research on lone parents not in work commissioned b…
A longitudinal qualitative study of the journeys of single parents on Jobseeker’s Allowance
Activating Lone Parents
The 2008 welfare reform introduced by the previous Labour government requires (most) lone parents with older children to be available for work. This article examines the potential effect of this reform on the employment rate of lone parents and whether the age of the youngest child is a good indicator of ‘ability to work’. It suggests that reform will not lead to the desired increase as the target group is too small and the levels of multiple dis…
