Abstract
This article explores the issue of intergenerational transmission of caring practices and parental
style, focusing specifially on fidings from various research studies on men and fathers in the
United Kingdom and Italy. It considers the tension between change and continuity in the context
of fathering/fatherhood and family practices through an intergenerational lens, it discusses key
cultural differences and similarities between the two countries, and it critically examines the
language and semantics of the ‘new’ fatherhood discourse.
