Providing a detailed survey of the author’s work over three decades, this book chronicles Tomsen’s studies of interpersonal violence and masculinities, which initiated new approaches and topic areas and informed related theorising.
These novel approaches in social science research sparked new pathways of understanding, which are outlined and evaluated in discussions of contemporary research and theoretical debates regarding masculinities and violence. The work reflects phases of study concerned with 1) public (and related “private”) urban male violence; 2) anti-gay/anti-queer assaults and homicides, hate crimes, and the ambivalent official responses to these; 3) the ambiguous views of violence and different masculinities that are generated and circulate in criminal justice systems, and in popular (film and online) culture; as well as 4) frames of understanding masculine violence that have emerged in recent decades to further explain and address the apparent intractability of much offending, its relationship to related forms of social privilege or disadvantage, and preventive measures and programs that are intended to counter this.
Crime, Violence and Masculinities provides insight into the long-term production of knowledge about masculinity and gendered violence that will benefit readers engaged in researching these topics, as well as those with an interest in research results and their translation into related theory more broadly.
