Global MasculinitiesInterrogations and Reconstructions

Edited by Mangesh Kulkarni and Rimjhim Jain (Associate Editor)

This volume interrogates the myriad practices and myth-making that underlie constructions of masculinities around the world. Challenging the patriarchal bias that restricts alternative understanding of masculinities, it shares evidence and insights on how men can creatively contribute to gender equality in the 21st century. The book will be indispensable to researchers interested in critical masculinity studies, women’s studies, sociology, social anthropology, law, public policy, political science, and international relations. It will also interest government officials, NGO activists, and other practitioners concerned with gender, health, and development issues.
