Between Men and Feminism had its origins in a lively colloquium
at St John s College, Cambridge in 1990. It discusses how two
decades of feminism have affected the ways men define their own
masculinities, and how they have responded in their own social,
sexual and political lives to the challenges posed by the evolving
feminist critiques of patriarchy and maleness itself.
The collection contains a great diversity of approaches from
Britain and North America. It includes viewpoints from academics, a
poet, an educational researcher and the members of an active men s
group. Gay issues feature prominently, as do psychoanalytical
views, and a number of the pieces provide a refreshingly personal
and practical outlook.
Between Men and Feminism shows men finding their own way within
the spaces feminism has opened to them, rediscovering their own
gendered voices and participating in the transformation of
controllong ideologies in their daily lives. These very readable
accounts will appeal not only to students in the social sciences
and gender studies, but to all men who find themselves responding
to the feminist challenge.
