Opis: A History of Masculinity - Jablonka Ivan
What does it mean to be a good man? To be a good father, or a good
partner? A good brother, or a good friend?
In this clear-sighted analysis, social historian Ivan Jablonka offers a
re-examination of the patriarchy and its impact on men. Ranging widely
across cultures, from Mesopotamia to Confucianism to Christianity to the
revolutions of the eighteenth century, Jablonka uncovers the origins of
our patriarchal societies. He then offers an updated model of
masculinity based on a theory of gender justice which aims for a
redistribution of gender, just as social justice demands the
redistribution of wealth.
Arguing that it is high time for men to be as involved in gender justice
as women, Jablonka shows that in order to build a more equal and
respectful society, we must gain a deeper understanding of the structure
of patriarchy - and reframe the conversation so that men define
themselves by the rights of women. Widely acclaimed in France, this is
an important work from a major thinker.
