| This reader fills a gap in the proliferating literature on gender and development, gender and international political economy, and gender and conflict. The lives of ordinary (and extraordinary) men in the Global South have remained vaguely drawn or invisible, there has been a tendency either to ignore men as gendered subjects, or to consign them to negative and stereotypical gender roles, often as victimisers and exploiters of Third World women. While it is vital not to overlook mens roles in crime, exploitation, and violence, it is obvious that a more nuanced and empathetic portrait of Third World men remains to be painted. This perspective makes this reader a genuinely original intervention into the study of both gender and development. The contributions are divided into the following sections: 1. family & sexuality, 2. ritual & belief, 3. work, 4. governance & conflict, 5. migrations, 6. masculinities in motion. | |
