Masculinity in the migration discourse

By Diana Marija Vrban

That it is 'masculinity' of all things that is to blame for the criminal and violent behaviour of immigrant youths is currently the recurring discourse being promoted by the media. No matter which newspaper we read or which television programme we choose, the images are always the same: 'masculinity' and criminality seem to be linked by an invisible thread. This paper approaches the categories of "gender" ('doing gender') and 'ethnicity' (doing ethnicity) as products of social processes. From an intersectional perspective, there are different modes of attribution, which include diverse lines of difference that are interrelated and, in turn, produce new constructions or effects through their intertwining.
