Bringing together an array of interdisciplinary voices, Global
Masculinities and Manhood examines the concept of masculinity from
the perspectives of cultures around the world. In the era of
globalization, masculinity continues to be studied in a
Western-centric context. Contributors to this volume, however,
deconstruct the history and politics of masculinities within the
contexts of the cultures from which they have been developed,
examining what makes a man who he is within his own culture.
Highlighting manifestations of masculinity in countries including
Jamaica, Turkey, Peru, Kenya, Australia, and China, scholars from a
variety of disciplines grapple with the complex politics of
identity and the question of how gender is interpreted and
practiced through discourse. Topics include how masculinity is
affected by war and conflict, defined in relation to race,
ethnicity, and sexuality, and expressed in cultural activities such
as sports or the cinema. Contributors are Bryant Keith Alexander,
Molefi K. Asante, Murali Balaji, Maurice Hall, Ronald L. Jackson
II, Shino Konishi, Nil Mutluer, Mich Nyawalo, Kathleen Glenister
Roberts, Margarita Saona, and Kath Woodward.
