23. Hegemonic Masculinity and Femininity in World Politics

<p>Can we overcome the "need" of a "standard way" of leading? Can we shift the way we socially construct local, regional and international relations?</p> <p>In this episode we explore:</p> <p>What is hegemonic masculinity?</p> <p>How are we culturally pre-conditioned to legitimize and maintain it?&nbsp;</p> <p>What is hegemonic femininity and how does it plays in favor of hegemonic masculinity?&nbsp;</p> <p>What cherishing figures like Jacinda Ardern, Greta Thunberg and Michelle Obama have in common with confining power by and among women?</p> <p>3-Step Assignment of this episode: 1. Identify the IR level of analysis (individual, state and system vs. national, regional, global) 2. Identify the realms of hegemonic masculinity/femininity expressions (ie. business, politics, economics, media, sports, etc) 3. Brainstorm the ways in which you are perceiving hegemonic masculinity/femininity expressions in those levels and realms, which are yours vs. influenced by collective consciousness?&nbsp;</p> <p>If you liked this content, please consider supporting us in Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/nataliabonillaprojects">https://www.patreon.com/nataliabonillaprojects</a></p>
