What can unfold from an engagement of feminist issues, concerns and
practices with the geopolitical? How does feminism allow for a
reconfiguration of how these two elements, the geo- and the
-political, are understood and related? What kinds of objects can
be located and put into motion? What kinds of relations can be
drawn between these? What kinds of practice become valued? And,
what is glossed or rendered absent in the process? In this
thought-provoking and original contribution, Deborah P. Dixon
cautions against the exhaustion of feminist geopolitics as a
critique of both a classical and a critical geopolitics, and points
instead to how feminist imaginaries of Self, Other and Earth allow
for all manner of work to be undertaken. Importantly, one of the
things they provide for is a reservoir of concerns, thoughts and
practices that can be reappropriated to flesh out what a feminist
geopolitics can be. While providing a much-needed, sustained
interjection that draws out achievements to date, the book thus
gestures forward to productive lines of inquiry and method.
Grounded via a series of globally diverse case studies that
traverse time as well as space, Feminist Geopolitics feels for the
borders of geopolitical thought and practice by navigating four
complex and corporeally-aware objects of analysis, namely flesh,
bone, touch and abhorrence.
