This edited volume contributes an important collection of chapters
to the growing theoretical and empirical work being undertaken at
the international level on men and migration. The chapters
presented here focus on what we might call 'migratory
masculinities': the experiences men have of masculinity upon
immigration into another national, ethnic, and cultural context.
How do these men (re)construct their conceptions of masculinity?
Where are the points of tension, ambivalence or assimilation in
this process? Featuring interviews and data drawn from migrants
working and living in Australia, this book explores how the gender
identity of men from non-English-speaking backgrounds is influenced
by the experiences of migration and settlement in an
English-speaking culture, across various cultural spheres such as
work, leisure, family life and religion.
