Masculinities and Displacement in the Middle East
Bloomsbury Publishing PLC (Verlag)
978-1-83860-404-2 (ISBN)
Based on in-depth interviews, conversations and long-term participant observations, Suerbaum identifies Syrian men's emotional struggles as they undergo the experience of forced displacement and she highlights the adaptability and ultimate elasticity of constructed masculinities. The Syrians interviewed share their memories and their understandings of sectarianism and growing up in Syria, their interactions with the Egyptian and Syrian states, and their experiences during the Syrian uprising. The book takes an intersectional approach with close attention to the 'refugee' as a classed and gendered person.
Magdalena Suerbaum is a postdoctoral research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religion and Ethnic Diversity, Gottingen, Germany. She has worked as a lecturer both at Humboldt University in Berlin and SOAS, University of London. She completed her PhD in Gender Studies at SOAS, University of London, UK.
