Editat de Anneli Häyrén, Helena Wahlström Henriksson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 iun 2016
This volume explores which relations produce or maintain masculinitiesand certain gendered systems of power and the consequences of these genderconstructions that further gender research. To understand the meanings ofmasculinity/masculinities and relationalities as critical concepts in genderstudies it takes a wide theoretical grip that spans over several researchfields. From a feminist perspective, it critically investigates masculinitiesas relationally constructed by scrutinizing which relations constructmasculinity within a certain gendered system of power, such as the nation, thefamily, or the workplace, and explores how this is done. ‘In relation to what?’is hence, in spite of its almost vulgar rhetorical simplicity, an importantquestion in investigating and problematizing gender.
