Book synopsis

Fathers and Sons is about change and continuity: the changes in men's lives as fathers and the ways in which masculinities and fatherhood are transmitted and transformed across three family generations. It is also about migration - the Irish who left Ireland in the mid-20th century and the Poles who came to Britain in the 21st century, together with a group of white British fathers. Through the stories of three generations in thirty families and set against the backcloth of history, this book provides unique insights into men's lives, migration, employment, fatherhood, father-son relationships and intergenerational transmission over the life course. It also offers a rich methodological story of how intergenerational research is done.
