男性如何承担父职是全社会共同构建的,社会政策的作用至为关键。瑞典和美国的社会政策显示,由于二者对社会福利的根本目的、对亲密关系与家庭形式的理解存在巨大差异,从而使两国的父职构建路径分别属于社会民主主义和市场自由主义。相形对照之下,中国目前父职构建的路径属于市场自由主义与保守主义的结合,亟需变革。 How men take parental duties is the common construction of the whole society, and the role of social policies is crucial. The social policies of Sweden and the United States show that there is a huge difference in their understanding of intimacy and family form because of their fundamental purpose of social welfare so that the father-duty construction path of both countries belongs to social democracy and market liberalism respectively. By contrast, the path of China’s current fatherhood construction belongs to the combination of market liberalism and conservatism, and it is in urgent need of reform.
