In Haredi Masculinities between the Yeshiva, the Army, Work and Politics: The Sage, the Warrior and the Entrepreneur, Yohai Hakak offers an ethnographic study of Haredi men and how their interactions and encounters outside of their community are reshaping their experiences and understandings of Haredi masculinity.
