Men and masculinities provides an engaging, accessible and
provocative introduction to histories of masculinity for all
readers interested in contemporary gender politics. The book offers
a critical overview of ongoing historiographical debates and the
historical making of men’s lives and identities and ideas of
masculinity between the 1890s and the present day. In setting out a
new agenda for the field, it makes an ambitious argument for the
importance of writing histories which are present-centred and
politically engaged. This means that the book engages head-on with
ferocious debates about men’s social position and the status of
masculinity in contemporary public life. In establishing a critical
genealogy for the proliferation of this crisis talk, it sets out
new ways of understanding how men’s lives and ideas of
masculinity have changed over time while patriarchy and male power
have persisted. -- .
