Abstract

ABSTRACT Increased public attention to issues of gender injustice has led to a proliferation of community-based programs for boys and men designed to educate for gender respect and gender justice. An intersectional approach to this work is now seen as imperative. In practice, however, this approach is far from simple or straightforward. This paper presents data from a broader study of community-based programs in Victoria, Australia designed to support men and boys to adopt more inclusive and respectful masculinities. Drawing on Nancy Fraser’s three-dimensional framework of social justice, we foreground the economic, cultural and political justice concerns expressed by program leaders as impacting on boys and men. We argue that considering these forms of injustice within the context of programs for boys and men is important but potentially fraught in pursuing the goals of gender transformation and gender justice.

男孩和男人项目中的交叉性和社会正义

摘要公众对性别不公正问题的日益关注导致了针对男孩和男性的社区项目的激增，这些项目旨在教育性别尊重和性别正义。现在看来，对这项工作采取跨部门的做法是必不可少的。然而，在实践中，这种方法远非简单明了。本文介绍了澳大利亚维多利亚州一项更广泛的社区项目研究的数据，该项目旨在支持男性和男孩采用更具包容性和尊重性的男性气质。根据Nancy Fraser的社会正义三维框架，我们展望了项目负责人表达的经济、文化和政治正义问题对男孩和男性的影响。我们认为，在男孩和男性项目的背景下考虑这些形式的不公正是重要的，但在追求性别转型和性别正义的目标时可能会令人担忧。

期刊介绍： NORMA is an international journal for high quality research concerning masculinity in its many forms. This is an interdisciplinary journal concerning questions about the body, about social and textual practices, and about men and masculinities in social structures. We aim to advance theory and methods in this field. We hope to present new themes for critical studies of men and masculinities, and develop new approaches to ''intersections'' with race, sexuality, class and coloniality. We are eager to have conversations about the role of men and boys, and the place of masculinities, in achieving gender equality and social equality. The journal was begun in the Nordic region; we now strongly invite scholarly work from all parts of the world, as well as research about transnational relations and spaces. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editors, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is double blind and submission is online via Editorial Manager.
