Despite the understanding of scholars that masculinity, far from
being a natural or stable concept, is in reality a social
construction, the culture at large continues to privilege an
idealized, coherent male point of view. "The Privilege of Crisis"
draws on the work of authors such as H. Rider Haggard, Rudyard
Kipling, and Joseph Conrad--as well as contemporary postcolonial
writers such as J. M. Coetzee, Hanif Kureishi and Zadie Smith--to
show how recurrent references to a "crisis" of masculinity or the
decline of masculinity serve largely to demonstrate and support
positions of male privilege.
