| Sumario: | We are interested in the configurations of masculinities in the TV show Hermanos y Detectives (2006), devised by Patricio Vega and directed by Damián Szifron. First, we provide a context for the shows presence on Argentine television at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st, in which crime fiction genre appears significantly in a variety of programmes. Secondly, we analyze the configuration of masculinities in two distinguishable areas of Hermanos y Detectives: work (with the police institution on the forefront) and private life (with an emphasis on the cohabitation of the protagonists). In the conclusions, we emphasize that, although the television show undoubtedly criticizes the dominant models of masculinity, it reproduces that logic at the same time. |
