xv, 236 pages colour illustrations: 22 cm Summary: Recent years have seen a growing world-wide concern about men and boys. Do boys have appropriate role models at home? Are girls outperforming boys at school? Is men's health under undue pressure? The nature of masculinity has been brought into question by a radical reorganisation of gender relations. Indeed, many now speak of a 'crisis in masculinity.' South Africa has made a rapid shift from a male dominated patriarchal society, to a new social order based on ideals of equality between men and women. How have men responded to these changes? How do men achieve successful masculinity in this new context? These are some of the questions that are explored in this book by leading researchers in the field.
