Female-Breadwinner Families in Germany
Female breadwinning has recently gained in significance in Germany. This article examines the extent to which female breadwinning is linked to new gender roles, and the impacts the role reversal may have on families' everyday lives. Qualitative interviews with female breadwinners living in Western Germany were conducted to explore families' ways of doing gender and doing family as an interrelated process. The research examined, first, the female-…
Doing family in the age of involved fatherhood
Qualitative interviews with men, who considered themselves to be ‘active fathers’, explored how they and their partners ‘do family’, particularly with regards to dividing childcare and chores, and awarding the right to self-care. Rationales, motivations and principles of the distribution of parental duties and rights in the context of everyday life were examined. While pragmatic solutions to familial challenges prevailed, normative approaches als…
The Logic of Multi‐Local Living Arrangements
Although historically by no means an unknown phenomenon, the social and cultural sciences are rediscovering multi‐local living and residence. Research on residential multi‐locality focuses especially on practices of multiple local daily life management, appropriations and their contextualisation, attachment, exchange, mobility and interactions between social relationships at different locations. Aside from quantitative approaches, research attemp…
Residential Multi‐Locality Studies – The Added Value for Research on Families and Second Homes
This conceptual paper introduces key elements of residential multi‐locality studies, arguing that a relational and processual analysis helps understand the interplay of mobilities and stabilities and of presences and absences which are typical of the practices of multi‐local living. Based on this perspective, research on familial forms of living and on second homes is re‐interpreted. It is discussed how these research fields may contribute to pro…
Entgrenzung von Arbeit und Familie – mehr als Prekarisierung
In diesem Beitrag werden die Stränge des Entgrenzungs- und Prekarisierungsdiskurses aufeinander bezogen. Konkret wird danach gefragt, inwiefern sich die Wandlungsprozesse in Erwerbsarbeit und Familie sowie der geschlechtsspezifischen Strukturierung beider Bereiche prekarisierend auf die familiale Lebensführung auswirken oder ob sich in ihrer Folge auch neue Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten für private Lebensverhältnisse ergeben. Die Autorinnen gehen von …
