Why is there so much talk of a "crisis" of masculinity? How have ideas of manhood been transformed by feminism? Does feminism hold the key to developing more egalitarian forms of masculinity? This volume addresses crucial questions about masculinity's analysis and construction in contemporary society. It examines how male privilege and power are constituted and represented, exploring the effects of these constructions on both men and women. Covering topics from Robert Bly's Iron John to Tom Hank's "niceness," the collection challenges outdated paradigms related to identity, victimization, and various forms of masculinity, fostering new dialogues between masculinity studies and feminist theory. Focusing on literature, film, and classroom practices, it connects the analysis of masculinities with feminism's ethical and political agenda for the future. The authors believe that this connection not only highlights the ongoing, albeit more subtle, persistence of male entitlement but also holds the potential to enrich and revitalize feminism for the new century. Through this exploration, the volume aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of masculinity and its intersection with feminist thought.
