Description

Explore a deep study of male identity and social structures in Manhood and Morality: Sex, Violence and Ritual in Gisu Society. Published by Routledge, this work offers a detailed look at the Gisu people of Uganda. The book examines the complex relationship between manhood and the moral choices men face when their identity is tied to their capacity for violence. Based on twenty years of intensive fieldwork, this ethnography uses psychological theory to explain social behaviors. Readers can learn about the roles of circumcision, sexuality, and ethnicity within this culture. The text also addresses sensitive topics including Oedipal feelings, witchcraft, deviance, and joking. This book serves as a significant resource for those studying African ethnography and the broader connections between masculinity and violence.
