‘Reporting on methodologically rigorous research Marco Palillo provides a theoretically informed, and wonderfully readable, account of men performing masculinity through refugee journeys. The critical intersectional interrogation of gender, power and vulnerability painstakingly illuminates people and experiences that are often misunderstood and misrepresented’.
