Handbook of Studies on Men and MasculinitiesMichael S. Kimmel, Jeff Hearn, Raewyn Connell Extrait de la couverture : "In the past, research in the field of gender has mainly addressed issues about women, and has for the most part been developed by women. Recently, the study of gender has rapidly expanded and there has been a growing interest in men's and boy's identities, conduct, and problems. [This document] is an iterdisciplinary and international culmination of the growth of men's studies that also offers insight about the future directions for the field. The handbook provides a broad view of masculinities primarily across the social sciences, with the inclusion of important debates in soma areas of the humanities and natural sciences. The various approaches presented in this handbook range across different disciplines, theoretical perspectives, methodologies, and conceptualization in relation to the topic of men. ... The handbook ... examines the construction of masculinities in four different frames : the social organization of masculnities in their global and regional iterations ; the institutional reproduction and articulation of masculinities ; the ways in which masculinities are organized and practiced within a contect of gender relations ; and the ways in which individual men express and understand their gendered identities." |
