Theorizing Masculinities - A Symposium at Emory University

This is part of a symposium on masculinities held by Emory University's Feminism and Legal Theory Project of Emory University School of Law - this is the kind of thing that sets off the guys supporting male studies. On the other hand, there needs to be some rapprochement between feminism and the study of male and masculine lives.

Nancy Dowd gives a very good lecture - and Michael Kimmel is one of the leaders in men's studies, so it's always interesting to hear his perspective. This is from 2009, but it's new to me.
Theorizing Masculinities

Presenters: Nancy Dowd, Michael Kimmel, Fionnuala NiAolain

This panel was a part of the Masculinity and the Law Workshop sponsored by The Feminism and Legal Theory Project of Emory University School of Law.

The workshop explored the relevance of masculinities studies to feminist legal theory and activism and was held September 11-12, 2009.
