| book description |

Addressing the longstanding shortcomings of theorising on men, masculinity and gender relations by examining how power operates through marginal positions, this book explores how masculinities are constructed, marginalised, and resisted across a wide range of geographies by bringing intersectionality and decoloniality into sustained dialogue. Men and Masculinities at the Margins moves beyond understandings of masculine marginality as a fixed condition to instead distinguish between margins as relational positions and marginalisation as historically situated processes shaped by inequality and power. In doing so, it places hegemonic masculinity under critical scrutiny, revealing both its continued relevance and its conceptual limitations. The contributions to this volume empirically ground engagements with this perspective, drawing on research from across the Global South and North to reveal how the processes of marginalisation are linked to colonial legacies, racialisation, class, precarity, caste, migration, violence, queerness, and digital transformations. Essential for researchers in Sociology, Gender Studies, Race and Ethnic Studies, as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students, these contributions reposition the margins as central sites for rethinking men, masculinity and the dynamics of power in a deeply unequal world.
