More sophisticated than its predecessor, Rethinking the Man Question is a powerful collection with real and disturbing policy implications. The essays here are deeply integrated with the new global study of masculinity and contemporary international relations theory. Together, they make a convincing case for putting gender at the centre of the way we think about international relations.

Located at the intersection of feminism, masculinity studies, post colonial studies and international relations, this striking collection demonstrates the extraordinary resilience and malleability of gendered power and violence in today's toxic post 9/11 world and opens up new terrain in the study and practice of national and global politics

Jindy Pettman, ANU

This impressive collection deftly extends the feminist inquiry into International Relations by interrogating men and masculinity. Scholars and students are able to both see men as gendered actors, as well as understand the gender of institutions and organizations. Taken alongside analyses of women, this collection will reframe the field -- integrating masculinity, but ever mindful of power differences.

Michael Kimmel, SUNY Stony Brook, editor Men and Masculinities

How come there is such vigorous resistance to women's equality in spite of decades of progressive social changes? These essays expose the desperate grip of masculinist logics and effects on both the field of international relations and also on life itself and its meanings around the globe today. Yet there are new possibilities for effectively loosening the grip of gender on current social institutions and practices. These essays point readers toward them.
