Emergent Masculinities In The Pacific - 9780415786942

Drawing on fieldwork and historical and ethno-historical research, ten authors offer eight in-depth case studies of the emergence of masculinities throughout the Pacific Islands. Read in conjunction, they pose questions about the role of colonialism and globalisation in shaping contemporary masculinities and of the degree of continuity between precolonial and postcolonial masculinities, establishing an agenda for future research in the decades to come. This book was originally published as a special issue of The Asia Pacific Journal of Anthropology.
