Addressing the relationship between masculinity, war, and violence,
this book covers these themes broadly and across different
disciplines. These analyses are located at different levels: public
policies at the macro level; resistance and independence movements
at the meso level; and masculine subjectivities, processes of
mobilization, and radicalization at the micro level. The ten
contributions encompass four recurring themes: violent
masculinities and how contemporary societies and regimes cope with
traditional violent rituals and extreme violence against women;
popular written and visual fiction about war and masculine
rationalities; gender relations in social movements of rebellion
and national transformation; and masculinity in civil society under
conditions of war and post-war. Taking into account different
geographical contexts, the book emphasizes the relationship between
the local and the global as well as the importance of understanding
gender and masculinity in their intersectional interrelations with
religion, race, ethnicity, class, and locality. This book was
originally published as a special issue of NORMA: International
Journal for Masculinity Studies.
