The concept of hegemonic masculinity, formulated by Raewyn Connell
more than three decades ago, has been the driving force behind the
expanding field of masculinities studies. Hegemonic Masculinity:
Formulation, Reformulation, and Amplification provides the first
comprehensive overview of the concept-from its original conception
to how it has evolved over time. The book also examines some of the
most powerful ways the concept is being used in contemporary gender
studies. Hegemonic Masculinity describes the development of the
concept, the actual formulation and initial applications of the
concept, the eventual reformulation and subsequent applications of
that reformulation, and finally, the amplification of the
reformulated concept of hegemonic masculinity. The book also
includes a chapter theorizing why and how hegemonic masculinities
are constructed, and the concluding chapter chronicles the
prospects for social change toward more egalitarian gender
relations. Hegemonic Masculinity: Formulation, Reformulation, and
Amplification brings together for the first time in one volume the
history of the concept as well as a discussion and examination of
some of the most important research accomplished on hegemonic
masculinity over the last thirty years.
