Postcolonial Masculinities: Diverse, Shifting and in Flux
Stockholm University, Faculty of Humanities, Department of Ethnology, History of Religions and Gender Studies.
2020 (English)In: The Routledge Handbook of Masculinity Studies / [ed] Lucas Gottzén, Ulf Mellström, Tamara Shefer, Routledge , 2020, p. 92-102Chapter in book (Refereed)
Abstract [en]

Moving beyond the seminal contributions of Beauvoir and Fanon on the discursive construction of Otherness, our chapter critically engages with the race-blindness of (western) feminist theories, the gender blindness and heteronormativity of (male) postcolonial theory and the ethnocentrism, race blindness and lack of historical specificity of Western (and white) masculinity studies. We draw on a postcolonial critical masculinities framework to examine the migratory and diasporic experiences of racialised men as gendered subjects in diverse contexts. We highlight how these masculinities are (re)articulated, contested and negotiated in and through specific historical moments, spatial and socio-political contexts, local/transnational discourses and in relation to other dominant/hegemonic (White) masculinities.
