Abstract

This paper reports on continuing work on ethnicity and gender in the
institutional contexts of the U.K. Accounting professions. The paper explores
issues of masculine identity, within a highly masculine-gendered
organisational context, and in particular the ways in which ethnic male
identities are created, sustained and damaged. We argue that men from
ethnic minority backgrounds suffer particular conflicts and exclusions. The
research finds different conceptions of masculinity by ethnic background, with
different work experiences and careers for those from minority ethnic
categories.
