Produktinformationen zu „Performing Masculinity (ePub)“
Geir Henning Presterudstuen provides an ethnographic account of how
men in the multicultural urban centres of Fiji perceive, construct and
perform masculinities in the context of rapid social change. Theoretically
informed by critical feminist theories, postcolonialism, R.W. Connell's work
on masculinities and a Bourdieuan conceptualization of the body, this
book explores how notions of masculinity, manhood and the male body
are shaped by the conflicting social forces of Fijian tradition, modernity,
commercialization and urbanization.
The book provides a timely intervention, from the grassroots level in the
global south, into an ongoing discourse about men and masculinities that
has long been dominated by voices from Europe and the US. Combining
classic ethnography with innovative social analysis, Presterudstuen's
book is suitable for students and academics with an interest in gender
and social change, and for scholars across a variety of disciplines
including anthropology, gender studies, sociology, pacific studies and
international development.
