Through a fascinating discussion of religion’s role in the rhetoric of American civilizing empire, The Imperial Church undertakes an exploration of how Catholic mission histories served as a useful reference for Americans narrating US settler colonialism on the North American continent and seeking to extend military, political, and cultural power around the world. Katherine D.

The Making of a Makbul Father The Portraits of Fathers as Affective Negotiators in Turkey


Free Download Mürüvet Esra Yıldırım, "The Making of a Makbul Father: The Portraits of Fathers as Affective Negotiators in Turkey"
English | ISBN: 3031667344 | 2024 | 173 pages | EPUB, PDF | 476 KB + 5 MB
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 Wetherell’s (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 men’s "Iamnotlikethem" and "Iamlikeallmenontheearth" moments. It is relevant to researchers in gender studies, masculinity studies, social psychology, and family sociology.
