Drawing on a critical, postmodern theoretical framework, this volume asks whether men can and will change in response to the changing role of women.'
Bob Pease is in the School of Social Science and Planning, RMIT University
Introduction Men, Masculinities and Feminism PART ONE: THEORIZING MEN AND PATRIARCHY The `Man Question' in Feminism and the New Men's Studies Postmodern Feminism and the Critical Study of Men PART TWO: RECREATING MASCULINE SUBJECTIVITIES Constructing Profeminist Subjectivities Recreating Sonhood Recreating Heterosexualities PART THREE: TRANSFORMING MASCULINITY POLITICS Men's Movement Politics Alliance Politics The Politics of Men's Interests Conclusion Postmodern Masculinity Politics
`Unlike many books by men on men, and most books by men on postmodernity, this is very well informed about and grounded in feminist work, and insistently pro-feminist in its approach to politics and change. It also deserves to be read whether or not you thought you were interested in either men or postmodernity. It really is about time the vast majority of men in the social sciences noticed the implicit gendering of their work and their politics, and this is a good book to help start that process' - Jeff Hearn, University of Manchester, and author of The Violences of Men
