No other work covers the forms and practices of men and masculinities in contemporary China so comprehensively. Through carefully exploring the global, regional and local influences on men and representations of men in postmillennial China, Song and Hird show that Chinese masculinity is anything but monolithic. They reveal a complex, shifting plurality of men and masculinities—from stay-at-home internet geeks to karaoke-singing, relationship-building businessmen—which contest and consolidate “conventional” notions of masculinity in multiple ways.Women and gender in China studies ;v. 6.MasculinityChinaMasculinity in mass mediaMenChinaIdentityElectronic books.MasculinityMasculinity in mass media.MenIdentity.305.31095Song Geng882362Hird Derek882363MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462905503321Men and masculinities in contemporary China1970897UNINA
