A Lot of Sweat, a Little Bit of Fun, and Not Entirely "Hard Men": Worker’s Masculinity in the Uljanik Shipyard

Socialist Yugoslav federation was from its very outset particularly attached to the notion of Balkan, but even more strongly to industry development as the one of the principal modernizing forces that had decisive influence on everyday life and gender performance (e.g. shock-work, self management or women emancipation process). Within that modernizing frame one of the principal branches of industrial production was shipbuilding, and among the three largest shipyards in Yugoslavia and now Croatia is Pula’s Uljanik. In this paper the focus is on today’s ‘manual workers’ (welders, fitters, lifters etc.) in that shipyard and their masculinity.
