I cannot praise this wonderful book highly enough. - Richard Collier Newcastle University " In this lively and engaging new book Hearn looks back over nearly 40 years in feminist - framed studies of men and masculinities and also forward to the futuristic scenarios through which gender power is currently evolving in transpatriarchal contexts." - Terrell Carver University of Bristol What have men and globalization got to do with each other? How are men shaping and being shaped by globalization? How is globalization gendered? Why do many books on globalization fail to discuss gender relations?
