Raewyn Connell (born 3 January 1944) (also known as R.W. Connell) is an Australian sociologist. She is currently Professor Emeritus at the University of Sydney and known for the concept of hegemonic masculinity and southern theory. ==Life and career== Connell was born Robert William Connell on 3 January 1944 in Sydney, Australia. She was educated at Manly and North Sydney High Schools, and has degrees from the University of Melbourne and University of Sydney. She has held jobs at universities in Australia, including being the founding professor of sociology at Macquarie University 1976–1991. In the United States Connell was visiting professor of Australian studies at Harvard University 1991–1992, and professor of sociology at University of California Santa Cruz 1992–1995.〔("About Raewyn" ). raewynconnell.net. Retrieved on 30 November 1012.〕 She was a rank-and-file member of the Australian Labor Party (before the party shifted to the right in the early 1980s〔Kuhn, R. (2005) ("History of class analysis in Australia" )〕), and a trade unionist, currently in the National Tertiary Education Union. Connell's sociology emphasises the historical nature of social reality and the transformative character of social practice. Her writing tries to combine empirical detail, structural analysis, critique, and relevance to practice. Much of her empirical work uses biographical (life-history) interviewing, in education, family life and workplaces. She has written or co-written twenty-one books and more than 150 research papers.〔("Research publications (complete list). ) raewynconnell.net.
