The Hegemonic Male

Masculinity in a Portuguese Town

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The construction of masculinity is becoming a field of growing interest because it is opening up new and fascinating perspectives, thus adding a further dimension to Gender Studies. However, so far the analysis has focused mostly on homosexuality. By contrast, the author examines social processes and relations that constitute hegemonic masculinity.
