Produktbeschreibung

"The essays in this volume represent a significant advance for our understanding of both the texture and obstinate endurance of inequality in Latin America. Building on recent breakthrough studies of women, gender, and sexuality, " Changing Men and Masculinities" opens up worlds of male experience, from the bedroom to the workplace. The volume confirms that masculinity is a useful, and indispensable, category of analysis."--Greg Grandin, author of "The Blood of Guatemala: A History of Race and Nation"
