NORMA - Nordic Journal for Masculinity Studies

Through a joint effort of the masculinity studies community in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden this new Nordic journal for masculinity studies is finally launched after years of scholarly discussions, activism, and cooperation within the field of critical studies of men and masculinities and gender equality.

NORMA is the leading forum for masculinity studies in the Nordic countries. It is a major resource for cutting-edge research regarding men and masculinities in gender studies and gender equality related issues. The objective of the journal is to facilitate the theoretical development, recognition, promotion and coordination of research concerning multiple forms of masculinities in a Nordic context and beyond. The journal promotes innovative interdisciplinary and disciplinary research and encourages new theoretical and methodological interventions in the field. Being a multidisciplinary forum, the journal invites papers from authors in a diverse range of scholarly fields.

The journal publishes articles primarily in the Scandinavian languages as well as in English and as such complements the other joint Nordic journal within gender research, NORA, which publishes exclusively in English.
