The concept of hegemonic masculinity, formulated by Raewyn Connell more than three decades ago, has been the driving force behind the expanding field of masculinities studies. Hegemonic Masculinity: Formulation, Reformulation, and Amplification provides the first comprehensive overview of the concept—from its original conception to how it has evolved over time. The book also examines some of the most powerful ways the concept is being used in contemporary gender studies. Hegemonic Masculinity describes the development of the concept, the actual formulation and initial applications of the concept, the eventual reformulation and subsequent applications of that reformulation, and finally, the amplification of the reformulated concept of hegemonic masculinity. The book also includes a chapter theorizing why and how hegemonic masculinities are constructed, and the concluding chapter chronicles the prospects for social change toward more egalitarian gender relations. Hegemonic Masculinity: Formulation, Reformulation, and Amplification brings together for the first time in one volume the history of the concept as well as a discussion and examination of some of the most important research accomplished on hegemonic masculinity over the last thirty years.
Questo volume, assai atteso in traduzione italiana, fornisce una sintesi agile e al contempo rigorosa della concezione originale e dei modi in cui si è sviluppata una delle più famose teorizzazioni sociologiche delle maschilità, la hegemonic masculinity elaborata negli anni Novanta del secolo scorso dalla sociologa australiana R. W. Connell. Tenendo conto degli sviluppi teorici del concetto, delle sue formulazioni e applicazioni iniziali, delle riformulazioni e successive applicazioni e, infine, della sua diffusione nelle scienze sociali, si configura come uno dei più aggiornati strumenti sugli studi di genere contemporanei. L’edizione italiana è arricchita da una postfazione di Cirus Rinaldi, Samuele Grassi e Marco Bacio, curatori e traduttori del volume.

Abstract
The concept of hegemonic masculinity, formulated by Raewyn Connell more than three decades ago, has been the driving force behind the expanding field of masculinities studies. Hegemonic Masculinity: Formulation, Reformulation, and Amplification provides the first comprehensive overview of the concept—from its original conception to how it has evolved over time. The book also examines some of the most powerful ways the concept is being used in contemporary gender studies. Hegemonic Masculinity describes the development of the concept, the actual formulation and initial applications of the concept, the eventual reformulation and subsequent applications of that reformulation, and finally, the amplification of the reformulated concept of hegemonic masculinity. The book also includes a chapter theorizing why and how hegemonic masculinities are constructed, and the concluding chapter chronicles the prospects for social change toward more egalitarian gender relations. Hegemonic Masculinity: Formulation, Reformulation, and Amplification brings together for the first time in one volume the history of the concept as well as a discussion and examination of some of the most important research accomplished on hegemonic masculinity over the last thirty years.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
