Mascnet online symposium event This event launches the Mascnet symposium Masculinity in Times of Change

About this event

We are living through a period of profound change and the title of our third symposium event seems more timely than we could have imagined.

The covid pandemic and the global political and social response to it, the aftermath of the election in the US, UK leaving the EU, the climate crisis, the black lives matter movement, metoo, the growth of online extremism, so called ‘cancel culture’ all constitute a turbulent context in which ideas around gender, sexuality and identity collide with the dynamics of economics, politics and ideology.What sense can we make of masculinity in these contexts? This three day online event tries to answer some of these questions.

The symposium is organised in collaboration with Men in Movement V: Masculinities and Feasible Futures an international conference taking place in Barcelona 29th September to 1st October 2021. https://meninmovement.wordpress.com/mim_5/

The symposium will take place on Zoom and registration will provide you with links to all 10 of the events that will be taking place between 20th and 22nd September 2021. We have presentations, artists talks and panel discussions. You can find full details at https://mascnet.org/events/onlinesymposium/ The programme of events is as follows:
