paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. Contents: Introduction. I. Militarised Masculinities: Shaped and Reshaped in Colonial South-East Punjab. II. Alternatives to Militarised Masculinity: Emerging Patterns. III. Popular Perceptions of Masculinity: Oral Tradition in Rural North India. IV. Crisis of Masculinity in Haryana: The Unmarried, the Unemployed and the Aged. V. Masculine Spaces: Rural Male Culture in North India. VI. Understanding a Male Concept: Honour in Honour Killings. VII. Contradictions in Masculinity: Contextualising it within a Caste Group. Bibliography. Glossary. Index. As the discipline of gender studies has almost become synonymous with women s studies, men and masculinities are subsumed under patriarchy/ies and constructed as monolithic across space, time, cultures and social groups. Though men s studies have proliferated in Western academia, in India the research in this direction is lacking. Neither is there a coherent theory of masculinities, nor individual studies of different regions. This book fills this conceptual gap by emphasising the need to engage with the complexity of masculinities; to understand it not only as an ideological construct, but also a set of practices that are both diverse and fluid. It throws much needed light on how, despite various contradictions and mutual antagonisms, different masculinities are able to act in unison on certain crucial matters that have severe societal repercussions. The field area of this study is rural north India, with special reference to Haryana, which has been the author s focus of research for three decades. She locates the study of masculinities in different historical junctures in the political economy of Haryana, stretching from the colonial period to the era of globalisation, in order to understand how notions of masculinity are defined and redefined. In the context of caste and class relations, patriarchy and other social divisions, the author investigates the contribution of such masculinities to what we are witnessing today: greater aggression and violence, worsening gender equations, greater exploitation of other subordinate categories, consolidation of repressive social forces and the strengthening of casteism and communalism.(jacket).…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An empirico-historical inquiry into the empire cinema in Hollywood and Britain during the turbulent 1930s and 1940s. It shows how the empire cinema constructed the colonial world, its rationale for doing so, and the manner in which such constructions were received by the colonized people. Although empire cinema has been examined by western scholars, such studies have located the films almost wholly within the colonizing country rather that exploring their reception among the colonized. By shifting the emphasis to historical reception of imperial popular culture this book seeks to fill out a certain terrain between the current Indian writing on national cinema and non-Indian writing on empire cinema. Combining wide-ranging scholarship based on original documents, film, stuides and historical and political analyses, the book aims to give the reader a sense of how ideologies, images and identites are constructed, promoted, contested and resisted in relation to key film representations of empire. This book offers fresh insights in the field of cultural and film studies from a multi-focal perspective.
