I detta kvalitativa arbete undersöktes om och, i sådana fall, på vilket sätt maskulinitetsgörande kunde påverka processen att lämna en kriminell gruppering och den kriminella livsstilen, samt hur arbetet i stödverksamheter förhöll sig till maskulinitetsgörande. Detta undersöktes genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med sju individer från stödverksamheter som hade insyn i arbetet att hjälpa individer att lämna kriminella grupperingar samt insyn i processen att lämna kriminella grupperingar. Arbetet tog utgångspunkt i två maskulinitetsteorier. Den tematiska analysen resulterade i fyra centrala teman, som belyste maskulinitetsgörande i processen att lämna en kriminell gruppering och stödverksamheternas arbete med detta. Dessa var: upprätthålla status, strävan efter att bli en deltagande medborgare med kapital, känslomässig process och en kvinnlig partners roll i processen. Delar av resultatet kunde anses överensstämma med tidigare forskning och resterande resultat berörde viktiga aspekter vilka kan vara av värde att undersöka i framtiden. / This qualitative paper examined whether and, in such cases, in what way masculinity influenced processes of leaving criminal groups and the criminal lifestyle and how the work in the support organizations related to masculinity.
