Freedom, Post-Modernism and Caribbean Masculine 'Re -descriptions

1996
Abstract
This paper targets the problem of masculine identity construction in its present configuration among selected English speaking Caribbean cultures. A short consideration of themes from Post-Modern thought and in particular insights from Feminist research are included for background and clarificatory import on masculinity as a socially constructed entity. With the help of this preamble Caribbean masculinity is 'deconstructed' with some important and insightful implications for emancipation critically delineated. Finally, some conclusions and recommendations are drawn with respect to a way forward toward a 're-description' of Caribbean masculinity with promise of greater freedom for all. Post Modernism liberation and 'redescriptions'.
