Contextualising Conferences: Ten Reflections on Ten Years of Swedish Local Authority Events on “Masculinity in Change”

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article

Abstract

When reflecting on the ten-year long series of one-day conferences that this special issue centres around, Maskulinitet i förändring [Masculinity in change] organised by Länsstyrelsen i Örebro län [county], beginning in 2010, I kept coming back to several questions: is this a unique phenomenon and achievement? How do we explain it? What are we to make of it? In this article, I go through ten reflections responding to, if not answering, these questions.
