“Global Parenting and the Unintended Gender Consequences: The Case of Taiwan”<\/p>\n
Based on my recent book\u00a0Raising Global Families: Parenting, Immigration, and Class in Taiwan and the US\u00a0<\/em>(Stanford 2018),\u00a0this talk examines the gendered consequence of \u201cglobal parenting\u201d\u2014the repertoire and practice of childrearing is increasingly transformed by the transnational flows of idea, goods and people. With the declining fertility rate, the professional middle class in Taiwan are actively seeking cosmopolitan cultural resources and overseas educational opportunities to raise their precious children. Parents at the right end of the spectrum strive to cultivate children\u2019s capacity for global competition. Parents at the left end draw on alternative curriculums to orchestrate an environment where they can achieve children\u2019s \u201cnatural growth.\u201d The divergent practices of global parenting have intensified the gender division of parenting labor as an unintended consequence. Although middle-class fathers are increasingly committed to the new paternal role, they feel pressured to invest more time and energy in breadwinning, including working overseas, to meet the rising costs of childrearing. Mothers are burdened with an increasing amount and a diverse range of mothering duties, either as the \u201ceducational mother\u201d or \u201cnatural mother.\u201d<\/p>\n\u8a00\u3000\u8a9e\u3000\/ Language<\/h5>\n
