自20世纪80年代初以来，霸权男性气质的概念一直用于性别研究，以解释男性对女性的权力。它强调同意的合法权力（而不是确保服从的粗暴的身体或政治权力），被用来解释男子的健康行为和使用暴力。性别活动家和其他寻求改变男女关系的人在干预措施中调动了霸权男性气质的概念，但性别理论和行动主义之间的联系往往没有得到探讨。将“霸权男性气质”转化为干预措施的研究很少。我们展示了如何，在南非和瑞典，这一概念已被用来通知理论为基础的性别干预措施，并确保男子被带到更广泛的社会努力，以建立性别平等。我们讨论了广泛使用性别理论的实际翻译挑战，特别是霸权男性气质，在瑞典的案例研究中，干预Machofabriken [Macho Factory]，并说明了这个概念是如何在这个活动家的工作中与男性生活。这一概念在发展一种更有可能产生持久影响的理论基础干预的可持续实践方面具有相当大的实际应用，但评估霸权男性气质中更广泛的社会变化仍然是一个持久的挑战。
The concept of hegemonic masculinity has been used in gender studies since the early-1980s to explain men’s power over women. Stressing the legitimating power of consent (rather than crude physical or political power to ensure submission), it has been used to explain men’s health behaviours and the use of violence. Gender activists and others seeking to change men’s relations with women have mobilised the concept of hegemonic masculinity in interventions, but the links between gender theory and activism have often not been explored. The translation of ‘hegemonic masculinity’ into interventions is little examined. We show how, in South Africa and Sweden, the concept has been used to inform theoretically-based gender interventions and to ensure that men are brought into broader social efforts to build gender equity. We discuss the practical translational challenges of using gender theory broadly, and hegemonic masculinity in particular, in a Swedish case study, of the intervention Machofabriken [The Macho Factory], and illustrate how the concept is brought to life in this activist work with men. The concept has considerable practical application in developing a sustainable praxis of theoretically grounded interventions that are more likely to have enduring effect, but evaluating broader societal change in hegemonic masculinity remains an enduring challenge.
