Given the changing socio-economic and  political circumstances of China, Xu identifies the importance of  investigating Chinese fathers, particularly in dual-earner families, as  women’s participation in the labour market increases. This  study of father-daughter relationships examines  their perspectives on their relationships and identities. The book seeks to  understand how girls construct their feminine identities as teenage girls and  how fathers understand their masculine identities outside the workplace. It  further explores their family practices and how they negotiate parental  authority and adolescent independence. \u003c\/p\u003e\n Inviting us to think about Chinese people’s attitudes,  family practice, emotions and aspirations, which constitute a crucial  complement to our understanding of the remaking of Chinese society and Chinese  lives, \u003ci\u003eFatherhood, Adolescence and Gender in Chinese Families\u003c\/i\u003e focuses  on how the widespread social and economic reforms interact with traditional  attitudes rooted in Confucianism to provide new contexts for parent-child and  gender relationships.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2017-02-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781137461773\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/978-1-137-46178-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 184\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44752444588172,"sku":"9781137461773","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781137461773.jpg?v=1775921702","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781137461773","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
