Drawing on collective work in fourteen countries over four years, this book reviews the state of knowledge and critical research on men and masculinities within Europe, emphasizing: men's relations to home and work, social exclusion, violences, and health; Europe-wide social change and no-change in men's practices; Europeanization and globalization; and fundamental changes in post-socialist Central and Eastern Europe. Addressing politics, policy and analysis on men in relation to these matters is increasingly important and urgent.
