Description
Changes in the work sphere and the "vanishing" of standard work may end the old breadwinner type of masculinity. But where "new men" try to balance work and life or show caring activities, they face obstacles - in organisations as well as on playgrounds. The book explains the ongoing changes in detail, shows ways how men deal with them and gives recommendations how to achieve gender equality by including a perspective on men.
