Hur påverkar maskulinitetsnormer rätten till en rättvis rättegång? : En argumentationsanalys om maskulinitetsnormers komplexitet och dess påverkan på rättvisa och jämlikhet inom ramen för rätten till en rättvis rättegång. / How do masculinity norms affect the right to a fair trial? : An argumentative analysis of thecomplexity of masculinity norms and its impact on justice and equality within the frameworkof the right to fair trial.

Description

Through an argumentation analysis and gender jurisprudence theory, this essay examines the complexity of masculinity norms and their connection with the legal system in western cultures. The analysis  investigates how this connection affects equality and justice within the framework of the right to a fair trial. The results show that courts and juries' values regarding "appropriate" masculinity influence decision-making processes. The conclusion of the essay shows that depending on how men, in relation to masculinity norms, are evaluated by the legal system, as well as factors such as class, social position, ethnicity, age, and sexuality, there will be an impact on how men are judged in relation to acts of violence and crime.
