Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The course offers an overview of sociological approaches and present developments in the field of critical masculinity studies. The central focus lies on intersectional approaches which are currently discussed in Women's and Gender Studies. This research focus renders an analysis of masculinities as structured by social hierarchies (such as: class, race/ethnicity or sexuality) possible. The intersectional approach thus constitutes a frame for such relevant feminist questions as interactions between socio-economic resources and constructs of masculinities or the relevance of racism and discrimination for constructs and representations of "othered" masculinity.
Assessment and permitted materials
Presence and active participation in class; engaging with literature of the reader; presentation of a text/thematic field; writing a final paper
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
The goal of the course is to stimulate participants to engage with current approaches of critical masculinity studies and their implications for intersectional theories and methods. After passing this course, students should be able to situate and evaluate research as well as point to omissions and develop novel research questions.
Examination topics
Reading and discussing (German and English) scientific literature. Presentations in class by student groups.
