Book, Righteous men: from patriarchy to new masculinities[LS]

"Man, are you capable of being fair? It's a woman who asks you", asked Olympe de Gouges, later guillotined in 1793 for defending women's rights in France to freedom, equality and fraternity. The thinker's provocation and her fate are among the starting points of this study, in which the author focuses on the history of patriarchy to instigate a reinvention of masculinity, in the name of justice and gender equality.
