GEXcel Work in Progress Report Volume V : Proceedings from GEXcel Theme 2: Deconstructing the Hegemony of Men and Masculinities, Autumn 2008

• The chapters of this volume are the result of the initial activities carried out within the frame of GEXcel’s second research theme, Deconstructing the Hegemony of Men and Masculinities. Most of the contributor authors were GEXcel visiting fellows and spent varying periods of time at Linköping University to work on their projects during November and December 2008. There are also two contributions from Tema Genus doctoral researchers who presented at the GEXcel events. Most contributors participated in the GEXcel conference on ‘Men and masculinities in transnational contexts: Power, hegemony and deconstruction’ and/or the symposium on ‘Men, age and embodiment: Power, hegemony and deconstruction’, which took place at Linköping University, Sweden, on 20th November and 2nd December 2008 respectively (see Appendix).On 27th-29th April, 2009 some will gather in Linköping once more, at a conference aiming to develop the research activities they carried out during the autumn of 2008.This volume is of a work-in-progress character, and thus the texts presented here are to be elaborated further. The reader should also be aware that due to the fact that this is a report of working papers, the language of the papers contributed by non-native speakers of English has not been specifically revised.I would like to thank Kjerstin Andersson, Alp Biricik, Malena Gustavson, Katherine Harrison and Berit Starkman for all their assistance in the arrangements for Theme 2 and in the preparation of this volume, Raewyn Connell for invaluable advice on applicants for GEXcel and Nina Lykke for her support as GEXcel Director.
