In The Man Problem, Ross Honeywill posits that the potential for
evil in all men is the social, political, and economic problem of
our age. Drawing on the work of social critics and theorists
including Zygmunt Bauman, Karl Marx, Hannah Arendt, Simone de
Beauvoir, Jean Baudrillard, Slavoj Zizek, and others, the book
traces destructive masculinity through cultural texts, social
systems, and everyday life practices. Using the lens of social
theory, social philosophy, feminist cultural studies, and
sociology, The Man Problem explores the legacy of the Enlightenment
as a context for a social world constructed by men (in modernity),
deconstructed (in postmodernity) and reconstructed (in the liquid
present). This book investigates the outlines of the patriarchy and
why the men who legitimate it behave the way they do. Despite the
troubled and troubling legacy of masculinity, Honeywill reveals an
alternative path forward.
