description The aim of the book is to introduce the most popular and widely used theories within critical studies of men and masculinities. The selected theories are introduced, analysed and illustrated with research examples. The first chapter describes the development of studies on men and masculinities in Poland against the background of Western culture. Furthermore, the perspectives and theories used in Polish sociological studies on men and masculinities are indicated. The following chapters characterise the assumptions of the subsequent concepts, discuss and nuance their specificities and present their criticism. The theory of hegemonic masculinities, the assumptions of toxic masculinities, the theory of hybrid masculinities, inclusive masculinities, caring masculinities, feminine masculinities and the concept of 'open' and 'closed' masculinities are described.
