From Boys to Men: Social Constructions of Masculinity in Contemporary Society
There is a growing critical men's studies discipline in South Africa, though it remains relatively marginalised. There still is very little work that looks at the construction of masculinities and speaks of local experiences in the South African and African context about what it means to be a man. This book addresses this topical area of study in a transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary manner, including theoretical work as well as a wide range of empirical studies that reflect rich ethnographic data from different contexts in South Africa, the continent and internationally.
