Abstract:
Fathering in the 21st century has gained significant prominence among scholars who have acknowledged the relevance of fathers in families. However, our understanding of diverse fathering in various contexts such as immigrant and ethnic minority contexts, “nontraditional” fathers (e.g., foster fathers), has significantly lagged. Thus, this collection of articles, Contextualizing Theoretical and Methodological Perspectives on Ethnic Minority and Diverse Fathers, includes five papers that challenge contemporary theories and methodologies to bring greater insights into the complexities of fathering and fatherhood. These articles are intended to encourage researchers to critically reflect on the contexts and diversity of fathers (e.g., immigrant, diverse ethnic backgrounds) and whether theories need to be modified or components of the theory need greater attention to be more reflective of fathers of today.
