“…Hoel & Salin (2003) have also found that employees generally may not want to report the incidence of bullying to higher authorities as it might be seen as an act of disloyalty. In some instances it has also been found that violence and bullying at workplace have become naturalized actions and taken for granted (Hearn & Parkin, 2001). Bullying can also take the form of extreme jokes and banter when the target cannot defend him or take the joke 'sportingly'.…”

“…As US social scientist Phillipa Strum (1989, 221) has succinctly summarised it: 'Equality is not a natural phenomenon: it comes into existence only when a leader is present to guide society toward it. Yet reports suggest that an aggressive, punitive even 'muscular' style of leadership is being fostered in 'post-late' times universities, one widely discussed in the literature on new public management and on the 'masculinisation' of managerial cultures (Hearn and Parkin 2001;Wacjman 1999).…”

“…This is clear in the sex trade. ICTs have been hugely successful in making historical transformations in promotion of pornography, trafficking and sexual exploitation of women, supplying encyclopaedic information on prostitution, and (re)organising sex trade operations (Hearn and Parkin, 2001). The 1990s were a period of major historical change in the sex trade: the annual number of hardcore pornographic video rentals rose from 79 million to 759 million in the US 1985-2001; in 1997 there were about 22,000 websites with free-of-charge pornographic content, by 2000 about 280,000 (Hughes, 2002).…”

“…They create potential for extensions and reinforcements of the hegemony of men, yet may also make some men and women dispensable. This is (Hearn and Parkin, 2001).

To put "men" and "social policy" together may still seem a little strange. Yet there are numerous ways in which social policy is about men, in its formulation, implementation, delivery, and inclusions/exclusions. Different men have variable relations to social policy, and are involved and implicated in social policy in a wide variety of ways, as: users, family members, practitioners, managers, policy-makers, members of social organisations, and so on. Likewise, the explicit gendering and naming of men is uneven in different social policy arenas. This article discusses contemporary debates in Critical Studies on Men -masculinity and multiple masculinities; hegemonic masculinity and the hegemony of men; embodiment; and transnationalisation and virtualisation -and in each case considers their implications for social policy, before some concluding remarks. Keywords: age, embodiment, hegemony, masculinities, transnationalisation, violencePreamble … … men in different parts of the world are spending vast amounts of money trying to kill each other, whilst a large proportion of the world"s population (mostly, but not exclusively women and children) are allowed to starve to death. Amnesty International [1991] reports the increasing use of rape of women and children throughout the world as a common instrument of oppression ... Male violence, sexual or otherwise, is not the unusual behaviour of a few "odd" individuals, neither is it an expression of overwhelming biological urges: it is a product of the social world in which we live. (Cowburn et al., 1992) The advancement of women and the achievement of equality between women and men are a matter of human rights and a condition for social justice and should not be seen in isolation as a women"s issue. ... Platform for Action emphasises that women share common concerns that can be addressed only by working together and in partnership with men towards the common goal of gender equality around the world. (United Nations, 2001) In recent years there has been a major expansion of studies on men and masculinities.While not playing down differences between traditions in studying men, the broad critical approach to men and masculinities of recent years can be characterised by:an explicit and specific focus on men and masculinities; taking account of feminist, gay, and other critical gender scholarship; recognising men and masculinities as explicitly gendered; understanding men and masculinities as socially constructed, produced, and reproduced, rather than as somehow just "naturally" one way or another;Critical Social Policy Vol. 30(2), No. 103, 2010, pp. 165-188.seeing men and masculinities as variable and changing across time (history) and space (culture), within societies, through life courses and biographies; emphasising men"s relations, albeit differentially, to gendered power; spanning both the material and the discursive; interrogating intersections of gender with other social divisions in constructions of men and masculinities.In this article I reflect on conte...
