This book delves into the complexities of masculinity, mental health, and cultural identity among young Bangladeshi-Canadian men. Employing an anthropological, intersectional approach, it scrutinizes the interplay of neoliberal ideologies, Islamic values, and diasporic experiences in shaping their masculine trajectories. The study unravels the intergenerational trauma, parental pressures, and societal expectations that contribute to their deteriorating mental well-being. With a unique insider perspective and rich empirical data, this book fills a crucial gap in the literature by offering invaluable insights for scholars exploring the nuances of migration, ethnicity, gender, and psychological resilience. Strikingly, the author proposes evidence-based interventions and policy recommendations to address the mental health struggles of this underserved population, making it a must-read for academics and students in diaspora studies, migration studies, sociology of race and ethnicity, gender studies, anthropology, political science and development studies, as well as NGOs and policymakers alike.
