Politics: The new ‘crisis of masculinity’ and the future of gender politics in Britain

Event details
Description
Are we facing a new crisis of masculinity?
With greater pushes for gender equality, or even liberation, what place is there for men in contemporary British society?
In conversation with David Duriesmith, you’ll explore debates over the future of gender politics, and get a feel for what it’s like to study politics and international relations.
