This Collection Highlights The Fluidity Of Masculinity in American popular culture at the turn of the new millennium and beyond by examining possibilities for male identity formation. Each chapter mines American popular cultureùtheatre, film, literature, music, advertising, internet content, television, photography, and current events-to pose questions about the process of gender creation and the contestation of masculinities as constantly changing political forms. The first part explores masculinities within late capitalism and includes studies of Seinfeld, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, and reality television. The second part addresses identity when masculinity intersects with race, religion, disability, and sexuality, and includes chapters on Barack Obama, the O.J. trial, and popular movies.

Elwood Watson is Professor of History, African Studies, and Gender Studies at East Tennessee State University.

Marc E. Shaw is Assistant Professor of Theatre Arts at Hartwick College. His recent publications include contributions to the book Twilight and Philosophy.
