- Militaries and militarism are among the most obviously gendered of all organizational activities. The military is also one of the clearest arenas of social power, violence and killing in their many guises. Military matters are urgent, powerful and lethal. The ways armies and those in them are organized and act are literally questions of life and death for all concerned. This chapter brings together studies on men and masculinities with those in the military and military organizations. Men, militarism and the military are historically, profoundly and blatantly interconnected. These interconnections have often either been simply accepted or it has gone unnoticed that these military persons are largely men. Indeed, many, though not all, armies and other fighting forces of the world have been and still are armies composed mainly of men, young men and boys. Those engaged in active combat and direct fighting in wars are often young men and boys. In the chapter, we address the place of men and masculinities in some key organizational issues in military organization and militarism, most notably recruitment, hierarchies and segregations, disability and veterans, and the impacts of these organizations on civilians, before concluding remarks on wider processes and impacts, on research, scientific and technological organizations, on international relations and geopolitics, and on the environment.

- The place of ecological and environmental concerns have not usually been at the centre of debates and analyses of men, masculinities, and global and transnational processes of power, even though men and masculinities have played a key role in environmental damage. Accordingly, there is an urgent need for more research, analysis and action on ecological and environmental questions, ‘green’ issues, sustainability, and climate change, and how these link to men and masculinities. Against this background, this chapter addresses sustainability in relation to intersections of men and the environment, and with emphasis on movements and transport futures. The current transport system not only supports and enacts the predominant global form of ‘quasi-private’ mobility that subordinates other less resource intense means of movement, it also causes damaging effects on the environment locally and globally. Central actors are to an overwhelmingly degree men of power, and men that dominate andcontrol its interlinked centres, such as the auto-, oil-and road industry. However, while the automobile and automobility have changed the world, self-driving cars and related automations are imagined as the next major transportation technology revolution. In the context of automated transport futures, the balance of power between state bodies, the auto-industry and power enactments by individual men, are likely to change.

Collective memory work with older men : Ageing, gender politics and masculinities

- Over a thirteen-year period, between 2002 and 2015, we were part of what we now call the Older Men’s Memory Work Group (hereafter the group). During our final three years together, we also collaboratively produced and edited a collective book, Men’s Stories for a Change: Ageing Men Remember (Barber et al., 2016; also Blake et al., 2016, 2018) – though it should be said, at the outset, that this was not at all part of our agenda until late in the initial process.Memory work is work on memories, usually though not necessarily collective, and usually also focused on and about some agreed issue(s) of concern. In our case, these memories were about the making and unmaking of older men and masculinities through age, ageing, gender, gendering, and other intersections. Indeed, from the very beginning the group was part of a personal-political project of changing older men and masculinities against patriarchal and sexist ways and relations, and towards feminist and profeminist ways and relations. Here, in this contribution, we first describe the practicalities and the process of our memory work before placing the method itself in its broader framework, and considering its potential for working with older people, and specifically with older men, and with certain implications for practice.

- This chapter argues that combining recent work in critical studies on men and masculinities (CSMM) with critical leadership studies (CLS) has the potential to open up important new research agendas in the broad area of gender and leadership and more particularly in relation to men, masculinities, and leadership. Its starting point is Collinson and Hearn’s 1994 Gender, Work & Organization article, “Naming men as men: Implications for work, organizations and management. ”Collinson and Hearn sought to make the gendered social category of men explicit in studying work, organizations, and management. This involved interrogating debates on patriarchies and multiple masculinities, as well as analytical questions around exclusion, differences, meaning, and power. The relevance of these issues was discussed in relation to (material) discourses of masculinity in management: paternalism, authoritarianism, entrepreneurialism, informalism, careerism.

Sexual justice and sexualities

- Sexualities research is a diverse and wide-ranging field, comprising a variety of theoretical and methodological approaches. Mainstream public health scholars have tended to approach the study of sexualities from an essentialist and biomedical framework, at times drawing on deficit-focused interpretations of sexuality and neglecting questions of power, context, and sexual diversity. Public health researchers have an important role to play in promoting and working toward sexual justice, and critical perspectives and understandings of sexuality are crucial in this regard. Approaching sexualities with a critical lens requires always paying attention to the power relations that shape sexual experiences, identities, and practices. This is of particular urgency in light of the many forms of repression, exclusion, and regressive backlash occurring across the globe, despite the many successes of the struggle for sexual rights and justice. This chapter provides a historical overview of sexualities research in the social sciences and public health and delineates some of the key theoretical trends within sexualities scholarship. It then presents some key priorities for critical research into sexualities within public health that may meaningfully contribute to advancing sexual justice globally.

‘A life of violence’ : Some theoretical/political/policy/personal accountings on ‘masculinities’ and ‘intimate partner violence’

- Reflecting on “a life of violence”, I had no idea that this issue would be such a key thread, provocation and problematic in most of my academic life, albeit in many different ways. Much, though not all, of this work has been within academic framework of Critical Studies on Men and Masculinities (CSMM), as a sub-field within Gender Studies, alongside policy development and profeminist activism. Indeed, I came to realise fairly early on if one is interested in studying, and changing, men and masculinities, whether in research, politics or everyday practice, it is really very difficult to do this without giving attention to violence and anti-violence. In this chapter, I suggest, as invited by the editors, some theoretical/political/policy/reflexive personal accountings of these various engagements with men, masculinities and violences, especially in terms of bringing together CSMM, Violence Studies, Sexuality Studies, Organization Studies, Social Policy, and Sociology, along with my place and positioning, some contributions, and some difficulties. This theoretical/political/policy/reflexive personal positioning reflects a broader ontoepistemological question: the relation of the personal is political is theoretical is work.
