| Title | Parents on the verge of pro-natalist state policies - - a case study of Hungarian single-parent households |
| Summary | The research explores the daily struggles of single-parent families in Hungary. Especially focusing on how single-parent household heads perceive the state vision of the ideal and what kind of alternative narratives they construct. It is particularly interesting to study this phenomenon among single-parent households in Hungary since their family structure deviates from the government-promoted “2 married parents with minimum 3 children” family model. Thus, the analysis of current Hungarian natalist policy provides a unique case to investigate how state ideology influences citizens’ self-constructing. Additionally, the research investigates if single-parent families are fully neglected by the exclusionary state policies and are denied by the dominant family and demographic visions and measures. If so, are they treated differently or stigmatized by the larger population? |
