Abstract

The field of critical engagement with masculinity constructions in and through media has continuously differentiated in terms of theory history. Research results building on this show the relations between media representations of masculinities and societal power relations in their complexity: While in media masculinity constructions often prevailing gender relations are articulated and these are reproduced, media also represent places of crossing and undermining prevailing images of masculinity.
