Chinese Men’s Practices of Intimacy, Embodiment and Kinship
Author: Cao, SiyangPublisher: Policy Press
ISBN: 1529212995
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
This book explores Chinese young men’s views of manhood and develops a new concept of ‘elastic masculinity’ which can be stretched and forged differently in response to personal relationships and local realities. Drawing from empirical research, the author uses the term shenti (body-self) as a central concept to investigate the Chinese male body and explores intimacy and kinship within masculinity. She showcases how Chinese masculinities reflect the resilience of Confucian notions as well as transnational ideas of modern manhood. This is a unique dialogue with ‘western’ discourse on masculinity, and an invaluable resource for understanding the profound social changes that transformed gendered arrangements in urban China.
Mapping Welfare Attitudes in East Asia
Author: Trude SundbergPublisher: Policy Press
ISBN: 1447357035
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
East Asian societies and welfare systems are rapidly changing, creating an increasing need for research that can help to establish sustainable and legitimate welfare systems. This original volume considers welfare attitudes in East Asia, including Mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Macao, Singapore and Taiwan, using qualitative and quantitative research methods. Proposing new methods and approaches to analysing cross-national variations in welfare attitudes, it decentralises dominant European-based concepts and measurements and takes approaches that are sensitive to cultural and political trajectories and the impact of colonialism and gender. This book explores the influence of contextual and individual factors, such as family roles and values, on citizens’ welfare attitudes. It also studies social legitimacy and social bonds to understand how to design and implement sustainable welfare policies.

The Universal Two-child Policy and the Motherhood Penalty

Book Description
In this paper, I investigate the impact of changes in potential fertility on labor outcomes and the gender gap using changes in family planning policies in China. My study employs the China Family Panel Survey (CFPS), a biannual, longitudinal data set and two difference-in-difference models to analyze the impact of the introduction of the Universal Two-Child Policy in 2015 on fertility and labor force participation. Results from both specifications suggest that the relaxation of the strict controls on the number of children a woman can have is positively correlated with actual fertility. Furthermore, I find that the Universal Two-Child Policy caused a significant decrease in women's labor force participation rate. Using two difference-in-difference models with variation in the extent to which the change in eligibility was visible to employers, I conclude that part of the decrease in labor force participation can be attributed to demand-side discrimination against women rather than solely due to women voluntarily leaving the labor force to have another child. Finally, men experience no change in the likelihood of being in the labor force, confirming that the policy indeed contributes to the gender gap in labor force participation.
