Foregrounding the ways in which men experience transnational
migration, Migratory Men: Place, Transnationalism and Masculinities
considers how we conceptualise and theorise mobile men in a global
context. Bringing together studies from around the world (e.g.
Australia, Pakistan, Tunisia, Zimbabwe, Italy, etc), the collection
foregrounds how the transnational migratory experience profoundly
reshapes men's complex identity practices. Specifically, the
collection highlights how transnational migratory aspirations and
experiences often lead men to reimagine local patterns of
masculinity and/or reaffirm prescriptive gender roles as they
encounter new spaces/places. In presenting interdisciplinary
research, the international scholars consider the powerful roles of
economics, politics and social class in shaping masculinities.
Furthermore, they emphasise how men affectively and agentically
experience migration and how interaction with new spaces/places can
often lead to negotiations between disempowerment and empowerment.
As such, the collection will appeal to both non-academic readers
who share transnational migratory aspirations and experiences and
academic readers across the social sciences with interests in
gender and sexuality, migration and diaspora, transnationalism and
contemporary masculinities.
