Fathers in the eyes of family welfare services social workers in Germany and Israel
Several studies have reported that non-hegemonic fathers who are clients of welfare services are undertreated compared with mothers. This issue is examined here from a previously unexplored angle by comparing perspectives of two groups of social workers from different cultures and working spheres in Israel and Germany. Transcripts of in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 14 German and Israeli social workers were analysed using a qualitative m…
“Fathers Are Very Important, but They Aren’t Our Contact Persons”
Research on the engagement of fathers in family- and child-oriented social work interventions has focused on individual factors relating to the father, to the mother, or the social worker. Much less attention has been paid to the impact of organizational aspects of the social services themselves. This article uses the methodology of institutional ethnography to examine this impact on the engagement of fathers in those services provided by municip…
Single Moms, absent Dads
The low participation of nonresident fathers in family- and child-oriented social work interventions is well documented, as are the adverse effects of their absence on the outcomes of these interventions and the welfare of their families.

We propose a systemic approach focusing on families rather than fathers, and…

While it is widely accepted that social work interventions are more productive when they include fathers, fathers are largely left out of child and family social service interventions in Israel and most Western countries. Current research worldwide focuses on the role that fathers, mothers and social workers play in causing this phenomenon. In this article, we shed light on the importance of a fourth element: the policy-making process. In a case …
The Mother-Based Intervention

The role of policymakers, however, has been neglected. This article examines the case study of policymakers in the Israeli social services to fill in this gap and examine the role of policy and policymakers in fathers’ absence. The findings reveal t…
