The concept of 'othering' which can be understood as the process of
differentiation from the Self has been a basic tenet of the war
story since war stories were first told. This practise of
deliberate differentiation is indicative of the fact that war
stories are essentially about the production of identity. The aim
of this book, therefore, is to unravel some of the gendered
ideologies that underpin the link between state identity and
foreign security policy by looking at a certain case, state and
foreign security policy. In particular this volume explores the
identity of the United States through military documents on
perception management in conflict from 1991-2007 shedding light on
the 'othering' and the 'selfing' that occurs in these particular
war stories. In doing so it lays bare the gendered ideologies that
underpins US identity between these years as well as exploring
potential spaces for alternatives. Thus, this book ventures a
detailed and unique look at a particular aspect of the gendered
reproduction of the state.
