Course/Module description:
In this course we will learn and analyze core aspects of the different “Masculinities”. We will then try to deconstruct the unique socialization to Manhood, which is typical to the “Sabra”, the Jewish Israeli Man. From our wide acquired perspective we will try to suggest a relational clinical stance, for the work with male clients in the Israeli welfare system.
