Description
Hard Looks: A Study of Contemporary Masculinity and Popular Consumption. This book examines the development of new masculine imagery in relation to popular consumption over the last decade. Sean Nixon investigates how this "new man" imagery relates to contemporary formations of masculinity and masculine culture. The study offers a lively and innovative analysis that will be valuable for sociologists studying men and masculinities, as well as students of cultural, media, and gender studies. Hard Looks is an insightful exploration of the changing nature of masculinity in modern society.
