Riassunto

This Reader fills a gap in the literature on gender and the developing world. In recent years there has arisen a sophisticated feminist literature on the lives of Third World women, their roles in development and their experiences of conflict. However the lives of Third World men have remained either vaguely drawn or invisible. Too often, a tendency has been evident either to ignore men, or to consign them to negative and stereotypical gender roles. While it is vital not to overlook men's roles in crime, exploitation, and violence, it is obvious that a more nuanced and empathetic portrait of Third World men remains to be painted. It is this perspective which makes this Reader a genuinely original intervention.
