On Masculinity.
Ed. by Serguei Alex. Oushakine. Moscow: NLO, 2002. 720 pp.


The authors contribited their articles to this volume strive to understand
how such concepts as 'male' and 'masculinity', 'gender' and 'gender roles'
become 'unshakable' and 'self-evident'. This volume is an attempt to apply
western theories and methodologies to russian reality and also to replace
the often abstract  and amorphous notions of 'russian patriarchy' with the
case-specific studies of this 'patriarchy'. This study is based on a wealth
of historical, sociological and anthropological data.
