Men and Gender Equality: European Insights
In this article, some of the most important findings of the European research project The Role of Men in Gender Equality (2011-2012) are discussed. This project was the first systematic research study of all European Union member states and associated European Free Trade Association states regarding men and gender equality in the fields of education and paid labor, the involvement of men in care and domestic work responsibilities, men's health, g…
What's in it for Men: Old Question, New Data
This article examines the question of what men win or lose by increased gender equality, in terms of well-being and health, combining a new macro data set with existing studies. A database was created for examining gender equality variables and potential health effects, using a sample of eighty-one European countries and the United States. The results indicate more positive effects for men than usually assumed. They also imply that men's contribu…
Power and structure in studies of men and masculinities
Men's Work and Family Reconciliation in Europe
Changes from breadwinner masculinities towards caring masculinities are described on the basis of European labour market trends and a recent 6-country study of men in part-time work. Although gender ideals are changing, working life shows a persistent trend towards preservation of breadwinner masculinities, connected to devaluation of men's caregiving. The results highlight the economic and material aspects of change and how work-related gender s…

A theory of gendercide
Mannlighet og historie. Om mannsforskning som ny dimension i historisk forskning
Gender as a system of differentiation plays very diverse roles in different societies and at different ages. The paper distinguishes between gender systems and patriarchal structures, and outlines three different historical models for understanding masculinities in context: a 'household society' model, a 'master society' model and a 'gender society' model. By analysing gender relatively to societal conditions, the tendency to impose the modern co…

Labour of Love: Beyond the Self-Evidence of Everyday Life
Contents: Introduction The semantics of love Shelter from the storm Money, gifts and gender Family theory reconsidered The fearful empty space
Pengarna och hemmet - något om bytesformen mellan produktion och reproduktion
Begreppsparet reproduktion — produktion motsvarar inte begreppen privat — offenlig, påpekar Oystein Gullvåg Holter. Han kritiserar tendensen att se patriarkat och reproduktion som ideologiska företeelser. Både produktionens och reproduktionens sfärer är delar av ekonomin, och uppdelningen mellan privat och offentligt går tvärsöver båda sfärerna
