Proposing a New Approach to the Research on Men’s Organizations

This article describes a study of men’s groups in Switzerland, in which both the official positions of the men’s organizations (N = 40) as well as the opinions of their members (N = 324) are examined using a mixed methods research design. This research strategy revealed significant ideological fault lines within the men’s organizations, ranging from explicitly affirmed anti-feminism to radical profeminist positions. At the same time, the mixed methods approach uncovered the existence of a shared view that transcends these fault lines, a view common to all types of men’s organizations. In light of these findings, the methodological approach used in this study is compared with that employed in the landmark studies of men’s movements from the 1990s.
