Description of
The Making of a Makbul Father: The Portraits of Fathers as Affective Negotiators in Turkey
3031667344 rar This book draws upon qualitative interviews with lower-middle class men with adult children. It provides important insight into a region of the world that has not been sufficiently studied in the field of Masculinity Studies and analyzes manhood/fatherhood from a novel perspective. It uses Margaret Wetherells (2012) theory of affective practice to focus on moments men experience masculinity as essence and free play as formulated by Todd W. Reeser (2010). Elaborating on affective practices which stabilize and destabilize makbulhood, manhood, and fatherhood, it focuses on a long-excluded generation of men in the literature and illuminates mens Iamnotlikethem and Iamlikeallmenontheearth moments. It is relevant to researchers in gender studies, masculinity studies, social psychology, and family sociology. Read more
